Non-Political Gun Talk (On topic)

I’m really intrigued by the 10mm. I don’t know why. I was also really into the .357 sig

I do have a Ruger Blackhawk with both 10mm and 38-40 cylinders. Same size bullets but the 38-40 is more a ballistic twin of a .40 S&W. 10mm is closer to a 41 mag with full power loads.

I have a Wyoming Arms 10mm. Its basically a 1911 clone. I was skeptical about it but it had a lifetime guarantee. Worthless when the company went out of business. I did send it back to the factory twice but it was a POS. It would only fire a couple of magazines before it stopped fully locking up. So now its just a pretty paperweight.

My Dad traded off that Firestar after he saw that 40 S&W was bashing up that tiny frame. That and the accuracy thing. Sold it to a police reserve guy as a backup gun.

10mm is pretty hot.

Mine was all steel. Small but chunky and heavy. It was mostly designed as a backup and not to be fired a lot.

Yeah, that little cannon was a chunk. All steel.

Early loads were too hot. They had the really hot loads and milder loads - which could be duplicated in the smaller 40 S&W case. Pretty much finished the 10mm except as more of a curiosity.

They wanted to work on a 9mm size frame...

Ted Nugent is into them.

Ted Nugent is into them.

Jeff Cooper got it started. With the infamous Bren Ten. Nice CZ-75 clone but no magazines were available for it.

 

[1BROWNWRENCH]

Not sure if Glock still offers one.

Upon closer examination I see the Humongus revolver IS a regular Smith and Wesson.

"Intuit told Campbell it mistakenly believed firearm sales were being made directly to the customers."

Bull. Getting sick of companies trying to force their political views into their product when the product has nothing to do with politics. It's like virtue signaling and parading social justice is more important to them than making money.

 

[1BROWNWRENCH]

Well I hope they get more than they bargained for.

It appears "Gunnytime" now has somebody replacing R Lee. It's the guy who played "Animal Mother" in Full Metal Jacket.

 

[1BROWNWRENCH]

It's not the same. Funny though they did get somebody from the same movie Sgt Hartman was in. Should have gotten Pyle. He knew his M14 well.

Too many of those shows have actors who know little just reading a script.
