First 10mm - Which one

[Ramjet]

I say forget the CC you have gun for that purpose stick with that. For hunting or woods carry I highly recommend the Model 40 MOS with a good red dot site mounted.. This will allow for accurate shots on game but could be used for SD of that is nessecery while you are hunting. I have run SD drills with MOS and it is just unbelievable how well I put bullets in the KZ and the times are really good. All that said it is not a CC weapon but a great competition and Hunting gun. At the price point you are talking you can get the Glock model 40 and really good optic to go with it.

But it's still plastic.

You can't just have one 10mm. It really starts at three.

Glock 29
Glock 20 or 40
SW 1006

Then get a 10mm carbine

Yes indeed plastic but executed very well one of the best Glocks yet and a fantastic platform. Let's keep in mind Glock stayed true to us 10mm lovers when others shunned us......

Rock Island Ultra FS not on the list because...?

Cause I didn't know that it existed...

It's a heck of a deal...


You can also get a high capacity version... http://armscor.com/firearms/tac-series/tac-ultra-fs-hc-9mm/

My 10mm History (journey)

1) RIA Tact II
2) Tanfoglio Match (then got other calibers for this gun - slides & barrels)
3) Tanfoglio Elite (then got other calibers for this gun - slides & barrels)
4) Glock 40 MOS - 1st Glock; Big Bang for the Buck. (I only like the Gen 4s, Glock guys think this is weird )
5) Glock 29 for Carry
6) 10mm AR from RMW Extreme - 16" rifle
7) Glock 20 slide & barrel (top end)
--- Got pretty good deal on Glock 41 MOS (use the frame mostly for the 20) Shot a few rounds of .45
Used Sig 220 SAO Elite

Your never done with 10mm. Heck I might sell one of the Tanfos to fund a 10.5" 10mm upper (But I haven't sold any 10mm guns yet cause they are all fun)

I say, start with the Tanfoglio unless your eyesight needs the optic, then 40 MOS

Right now, I am still up in the air so please keep the opinions coming. I hope to get to a shop that has a couple EAA Witnesses and a Glock 20/21 or 40/41 in stock to compare.

That RIA Tac looks real interesting!

Look for a Canadian Para 16-40, ream barrel,re spring add EGW flat bottom fPS and you are good to go for well under 1K with 17 rounds

I think he is really on to something in my own personal experience!

So what is the main difference between the Match, Stock I, Stock II, and Stock III?

Elite Match has a 4.75" standard barrel, SAO, Novak style adjustable rear sight, blue slide, chrome frame two tone, standard length dust cover with rail.

Stock I is 4.5" cone barrel, DA/SA, Novak style adjustable rear sight, checkered front and back strap, chrome slide and frame, standard length dust cover, no rail.

Stock II is a 4.5" cone barrel, DA/SA, Bo-Mar style adjustable rear sight, full-length dust cover no rail, squared trigger guard, checkered front and back strap, chrome slide and frame.

Stock III is a 4.75" cone barrel, DA/SA, Bo-Mar style adjustable rear sight, full-length dust cover with rail, squared trigger guard, checkered front and back strap, blue slide and frame.

I have never been entirely clear if in the elite line the silver is hard chrome finish or stainless steel.  I even own one, and I still am not sure.  It is NOT the terrible "wonder" finish of the standard line.  It is very durable either way.

what's the weight difference between the Witness and the Model 40?

[BrowningGuy88]

The G40 is 28.15 oz unloaded and the Witnesses range from 35 to 44 oz unloaded.

[Ramjet]

thank you I was too lazy to research it.

[PCFlorida]

Of course you will love the Sig 10mm, I have the DA/SA model and it is awesome
