That's the Fusion. It's been pointed out before they lack support. Beats me why the choice was made to use something like that.

the buyer of the pistol has the choice of ramped or conventional barrel setup. I chose conventional. In hindsight, I'm happy that I did. Over 2,000 true 10mm rounds later it's still going strong.

Shooting nuclear loads out of that pistol would be shooter elbow-wrist-hand suicide. ~650ft lbs of energy is more than enough to get the job done in a SD situation.

Redline, yep, that is the barrel from the 10mm CCO I got from Fusion.

Thanks for the clarification and explanation.  For me, the reason I still wouldn't go with the conventional barrel is for the sake of a safety cushion against overcharged screwed up factory loads that made it out of the factory accidentially.  Even the poor chamber support of the stock 10mm Glock barrels have far more support.  But that's just me.
Gun Control?  Oh yes, the theory that becoming a victim is somehow morally superior to defending yourself & your family.  Makes perfect sense.

it did happen to me. Lost a set of nice red cocobola grips and a mag.
