What are some good platforms, makes, etc, that it's available in?

Had one. Didnt really impress me.
Maybe with a 9x25 dillon.
More interested in a Glock 41 with a .40 Super barrel.

>>32496718
Overkill isn't it? you'd be better off with 9mm and more capacity. unless you live near bears
>>
>>32497226
Two more rounds?

>>32496718
Nothing wrong with it. For EDC, your only option is the Block 29. You can't be a little bitchboi limpwrister, tho.

>>32496718
I have an EAA/Tanfoglio Witness in 10mm. I mostly use it as a woods gun and range toy.
>>
>>32497233
5 if you are comparing the Glock 29 and 19
>>
>>32497226
If you live near bears it's a totally reasonable option with only a slight capacity penalty versus 9x19.
>>
>>32497260
thats why i said unless he lives near bears, 10mm will make a bear fuck off
>>
>>32497257
19 is half an inch taller than the 29
Glock 20 is about an half an inch taller than the 19
>>
I don't know why it's bad for cc if it could stop a bear. Is their such a thing as too much power? I mean why do you even need a gun for cc if the guy your up against is some skinny twink anyway? If it can stop a bear then it can definitely stop whatever is attacking you on the street

Shut up you cucking cuckenstein.
>>
10mm is excellent.

However, 10mm guns are too thick and heavy for EDC. Even the Glock 29 is too thick, not comfy.

I have a 10mm Colt and love it; prefer to EDC 9mm.
>>
>>32497233
Depends on what you're talking about. If you're saying "two more 9mm rounds to off a bear", it's not really going to work out - 9mm gets stuck in bear fat, or gets deflected by their bones. So now you have a bear that is still very much alive, but is very pissed.

The increased recoil makes followup shots more difficult. And leads to a flinch in the less experienced shooter.

That's the whole reason .40SW was developed.

>>
>>32498277
Have you ever shot a 10mm? It's got about the same kinetic energy (when loaded hot) as a .357

It's a lot less practical at typical engagement ranges, when the stopping power of .40 is good enough (same energy as .45 ACP with better ballistics).

9mm shill detected.
pic related is real 9mm on left and 10mm on right.
>>
>>32498386
It means factory ammunition isn't typically loaded at max level pressures dingus.
>>
>>32498790
So you call all store bought ammo hot loads? I have more normal 10mm loads than colt loads
>>
>>32496718
It's definitely one of the worse calibers for any defensive situation. It will over-penetrate and possibly hit innocent people and the vast majority of the energy will not transfer into the enemy, cost a lot, slow follow up shots. it's all around a terrible caliber for defense against a human. 9mm, 357 mag, 40 s&w, and 45 acp are better in every way.

there is like one retard that posts his 10mm in any thread related to 10mm >>32498289, who is probably the OP anyway.
>>
>>32498820
No, but some factory loads are in the 520 ft/lb range

Hotter ammo is in the 650 ft/lb range.

What ammo do you consider normal?
>>
>>32498910
>the vast majority of the energy will not transfer into the enemy

This is wrong. Your only good points are overpenetration and recoil.

Also, .357 mag and 10mm have the same energy, only 10mm is wider. So you are clearly just spouting nonsense.
>>
>>32498910
if some people can make .500magnum bullets that stop about 12 inches in ballistic gel, I'm sure you can find 10mm that won't overpenetrate.
>>
>>32496718
>general defense/carry caliber
You can make it work, but for carry duties, there's nothing that the top 3 can't do. At that point you're just wasting money buying into a meme. 10mm makes more sense as an field cartridge when you're hunting, hiking, etc. because you can carry the full-power 10mm without worrying much about over-penetration. But again, in that case why not just buy a magnum revolver as a field gun?

>What are some good platforms, makes, etc, that it's available in?
That's the main problem with meme calibers: There's really not a whole lot of support for them. 10mm is like .357 Sig in that there isn't enough enough variety in choice compared to more common rounds. That said, Glock makes the only reasonably affordable 10mm handgun. If you're willing to spend a little more, there's a few 1911-style guns which I hear are decently reliable for the most part. Don''t want a Glock or 1911? Too bad. You're going to have to pony up the cash to play in the thousand-dollar handgun market. I cannot speak from personal experience, but they should be amazing considering the dosh your dropping for one those. The only ones that you should really stay away from are the EAA/Tangfolio guns especially the cheaper ones.

Capacity. I can't carry 14+1 in a revolver.
>>
10mm owners love hot loads.
>>
>>32497493
It's not going to stop a bear easily.
>>
10mm guns are bigger and heavier than I'd want to EDC but if you're willing, carry light fast moving hollow points. You can get a full of inch of expansion. 10mm is great.

I have a Tanfoglio Witness Stock I, love it. Then again, your comment about "thousand dollar handgun" is right on the mark.

Agree with 10mm being ideal for field carry, ideally w/ some buffalo bore hardcast.
