10mm Pistols at a glance

The 10mm semi-auto has quietly taken the forefront in pistol design. Preferred by law enforcement over the 9mm for its higher velocity, greater range, and much greater energy, the 10mm is often the choice when police and sheriff departments go through a weapon replacement cycle.

For home defense and personal use, the 10mm competes well with the popular .45 ACP. It has greater energy, longer range, and is equally accurate. It does have a higher recoil than a .45 ACP and the bullet weight is smaller, but the larger casing, with more powder, propels the smaller bullet at greater velocity, offering higher energy on target.

The 10mm semi-auto is also a great bear defense gun. When power, ease of use and speed are critical, the 10mm round really shines.
