Anyone know about a 10 mm mag?
« on: January 04, 2007, 03:20:43 PM »
I have had a Glock 20 in 10 mm  was paging through a gun rag and saw in a starline brass add that they had 10 mm mag brass for sale and have heard of the 610 s&w but what is the 10mm mag?? Does anyone have the specs or any information about it??? It would be much appreciated..

If I recall right, AMT or IAI made this in a semi-auto called the javelina, it was pretty much like one of the later automags like the automag II 22mag or automag IV (30 carbine I think). I hope that's right, but no gaurentee.

you would have major problems with the extra length . you would also have to look up the pressure to determine the force curve/slide velocity ratios in order to determine the springs. It was easy to do in pistols which were already designed for the 45 win mag. I do recall reading about a 10mm super. this might be more workable. The smith is plenty strong and does well with the 45 super, but the 10 already operates at very high pressure for a pistol. Hope this helps.

check out bren-ten.com they tlk favorably about the conversion. Now you got me thinking. The magnum is a quarter inch longer than the 10 auto and quite a bit more power. you could still use 40 s&w and 10 mm thru it. Playing devil's advocate though I would be curious about if the clips would twist or stretch from it. If it is a tight fit it shouldn't be an issue, but you don't know til you try.

Might be a lot easier to buy a .41 mag . . .

 I could definitely see an advantage to being able to use three types of ammo. I however use a 10 mm auto and a blackhawk 41 magnum to cover the same range
