Brutal? You mean like a real magnum pistol? I don't think it would be. Neither the G20 or the G29 really have any recoil worth mentioning and even with the hottest loads nothing even approaches the pain threshold.

The wider double-stack grip helps spread the recoil over a larger area of the hand, but the fact that the polymer frame flexes to absorb recoil probably makes a bigger difference.

As long as the gun had a full length grip, I wouldn't be a-scared to shoot it

Yes, brutal, depending on your definition of brutal. My definition would be that you would definitely know you just shot something serious. Of course, they aren’t going to make a slimline 10mm so I doubt we’ll ever know.

The 20 weighs 50% more than the 48. I don’t get hurt by normal handguns either. I’ve shot 35 Remington and .308 “pistols”. .44 Magnum doesn’t hurt me either but a small light plastic 10mm with warm loads would definitely be snappy! You ain’t going to be doing .20 splits with good hits.

I have Glock and 1911 handguns in 10mm.

A slimline Glock wouldn't weigh the same or be the same size as the 9mm G48. It would be proportionally larger and heavier than a G48 but smaller and narrower and with a shorter barrel than a G20.

Glock could make a single stack 10mm out of the G36. it has teh right grip length from front to read and all they'd need to do is lengthen the barrel and slide to 4 inches and length the grip so he mag could hold ten rounds. the longer grip would also help with recoil Glock could also make the same gun in 45 ACP and call it the G36x, and with the longer grip it could hold at least seven rounds instead of the 6 rounds the G36 is limited to and then the longer factory mags could also be used in the regular G36.

If Glock would put ME in charge of R&D of Glock USA we'd see some truly amazing guns that would sell like the proverbial hotcakes, like a modular carbine that had a receiver that accepted 9mm, 357 Sig, 40 S&w, 45 ACP, 10mm, and 22 Lr "Uppers" and had interchangeable mag wells and at that point Glock would also make factory OEM extended mags 40 both 45 ACP and 10mm as well as 22 LR.

I’d like to see a Glock carbine. I’ve been thinking about adding an AR pistol to the stable and honestly a PCC makes more sense.

I’d hate to work in the SDevGru (Serration Development Group) if you were ever put in charge!

yeah I saved that attachment lol but I think it's fake. Wish it was true though.

Well, it would strike me as odd if no one at Glock had suggested, or at least considered, the idea of a single-stack 10mm. They've obviously done it in .45acp.

Maybe Glock's engineering group took a look at it, but later shot it down as simply not technically feasible. :headscratch: :dunno:

Unfortunately, many wymins like this ^^^ seem to have all their "good stuff" used up on the outside...as in nice to look at, but conceited, overly concerned with their appearance, expecting both their looks and physical attributes to open doors for them and to provide themselves with an avenue towards recieving preferential treatment and special attention, and lastly to somehow define them as a perfect person on the inside as well, which unfortunately is not always the case. My ex-wife was such a person; 'nice to look at, but absolutely cold and cruel on the inside, which rather effectively nullified (imagine a fresh cut flower wilting in a 5 second time-lapse video, LOL) her desirable outside appearance once you were exposed to the real her...

Yep, looks are only skin deep...so don't expect everything to always be all roses after you've delved deeper ;)

I recently shot my 29 and it was a handful. I think a single stack could be tough to tame.

Funny you mention that ... Two days ago I enjoyed a 'range session' with my G29.

Fired 150-rds of hot 200gn handloads through the fitted Bar-Sto 10mm tube I bought years ago just for that purpose. Better chamber support, and it saves the factory barrel for the EDC ammo.

Then I stripped it, and replaced the Bar-Sto tube with a LWD 'drop-in' .40 barrel, and ran about 100-rds of generic factory .40 ammo through - which felt like shooting a 9mm, comparatively speaking. :whistling:

Love this little beast. (Obligatory drool pic: slide & barrel were NP3-treated about 12+ yrs ago by Robar).

:laughabove:

I've put at least 3K-rds through it over the years, roughly counting factory and reloads, so I guess I'm used to the way it handles 10mm ammo that's tuned to the hotter side of the cartridge's energy curve (i.e., loaded above 'mid-range' velocity for a particular bullet-weight). I also run Wolff's XP recoil assembly.

The polymer frame, plus its wide, double-stack 'girth,' both operate to diminish felt-recoil.

So, yeah, I can see where a Glock 10mm, running off a single-stack frame, would impart a different feel when firing a mag full of real (full-power) 10mm ammo.

:cool:
