Which 10MM?

[Art in Colorado]

Trying to decide the one to buy. The Glock 20 or the new XDS? Has the new XDS been out long enough to have any bugs worked out? Has there been any recalls? The Glock has been out for a very long time and that is re-asuring but the XDS has proper steel sights with a fiber optic front. I would have to replace the plastic sights on the Glock. Just can't make up my mind. I know I will be torched for saying this but I just do not like the 1911 format. I love my Sigs but do not want to spend the money for their S/A 220 at this time of my life.

Thanks

I used to hate Glocks...Now carry one. They are just so **** reliable....and that is a critical attribute for me.

I have 10mm handguns in 1911, Tanfoglio Witnesses, S&W (auto and revolver) and now the Springfield XDm. Plus a 10mm AR. I've only had the XDm a short time, and only had it out twice to put a few rounds through it, but I really like it. I opted for the 5.25" model for the adjustable target type sights, though I didn't have to move them at the 20 yards I tested the gun at.

The ergonomics are first rate, and with a capacity of 15+1 rounds, if offers plenty of firepower. My Witnesses are 17+1 rounds, but I don't feel like giving up two rounds is a big deal. Like I said, I really like the XDm, and it made a nice addition to the 9x19, 357 Sig and .45 acp XD's that I already own.

Hope this helps.

I have been considering a CZ75 clone. Just throwing that out for your thoughts. I am not a fan of striker fired plastic, or 1911 10mm so you know from where I come! The Witness in 10 feels good and I would already have one if it didn’t throw my brass on the ground
Every time I decide to get it, I come home with another revolver...

Glock, end of discussion

Ha , I feel your pain revolvers are so much sweeter to load for.

I first bought a Glock G20. I found the rear of the chamber to be way over SAAMI spec. Accuracy sucked. The polygonal barrel rifling limited me to about 1200 fps before boolits would strip and tumble. I bought a KKM barrel and those two problems went away. I liked it good enough to put night sights on it. But it still had the blocky gripe and the Glock angle.

Next came the Sig 220 DA/SA. It came with night sights, great feeling grip, stellar accuracy, full chamber support. It’s great...and real heavy.

I bought the first XDM 4.75” I saw. I added night sights to it. It’s PERFECT! No problems. Fully supported chamber. Feels light as the Glock, shoots better than the Glock. G20 hasn’t been out since the XDM came home.

Saving up right now for a Glock 40 MOS. Is it bad that I already have 10 magazines for it?

I've always been a glock fan. So that's my vote.

Im very happy with my 10mm 1911. Just wish it didn't throw the brass 50 foot away lol.

Look at the GRAND long bbl. Very accurate, hammer fired, DA/SA, SA pull 2 stage 2 lbs, 14 rounds rotating bbl breeching increases recoil duration reduces felt recoil. (think 375 H&H vs 300 RUM)

You have a link to this marvel?

Have you shot these guns in question?

Changeable parts are not things to disqualify a pistol. All pistols have things your not gonna like and things that your gonna or gonna want to chage. Steel sights on a Glock are a universal complaint.

Best advice I can offer is to suggest you go and shoot each of these. Side by side if you can.

The sig has alot going for it so does a Whitness. I like the 1911 and the Glock as well.
Boil things down and I would have to choose my G29 as my favorite but Ill never sell my Delta or my G20 pistols.

I am 10mm poor
XDM 5:25
Glock 20, 29 and 40 MOS
Colt Delta
Springfeild longslide 1911 OP
Ruger GP100 revolver
Reeder Custom 1911 (RIA)
Encore carbine rifle
Kriss Vector
Hi Point carbine
Remington R1 long slide 1911

I like them all they are all accurate but these are the best of the handguns MOS40,XDM,Springfield 1911 and the Remington 1911.

Encore carbine is the most accurate of all of them with all ammo.

The Reeder Comander model 1911 easy to carry but surprisingly I carry the revolver and the XDM more love the idea of the higher capacity of the XDM.

S&W is marketing the Model 610 again, in 4 and 6" barrels. Just saying.

Hip hip Horah....

Put one on reserve the 4.5”.

Although the 10 can be a really nice hunting gun it makes an even better SD gun and the 610 is one that I need to add to my growing list 10s.

What weight Spring set up do you have?

[Art in Colorado]

Picked the XD-M. Not shot it yet but I like the way it feels.

Wooohoooo! Good for you!
Which barrel lengthdid you get?

I thoroughly enjoy my 5.25” target model. 10gr Blue Dot and a 180gr WFN is very maneagable and fun to shoot
