TN357mag

I never warmed up to the M&P .. But .. I do like the new SD9VE and SD40VE. Best value in semi-pistols ...

I really wasn't comparing the 40 S&W with the higher pressure 44 spl loads... why ? If you are useing the higher pressure custom type 44 spl ammo .. you are fireing out of a 44 mag revolver or a Large frame 44spl revolver .... Myself the 44spl shines at the attended lower pressure.. and useing it in a small or medium frame revolver ... If I use higher pressure 44 spl ammo .. I will have a 44mag revolver .. and then I will just save myself money and fire 44 mag ammo ... Instead of custom high pressure 44 spl ammo ... Myself , if Im going heeled .. I may carry my 27 over my 44spl ..They're absolutely no real world self defense advantage .. In carrying a 5 shot 44Spl revolver over a 27 9+1 loaded with the plentiful and abundant selection of SD 40 S&W ammo.. If I had a large frame revolver in 44 spl or 44 magnum .. I would still carry a 27,30S or even a Glock 41 over a 44 oz 5 or 6 shooter .. My Charter 44spl 2.5 inch barrel 21oz Hornady XTP 180gr 44spl out of a 2.5 inch barrel 775 fps Federal Hydra-Shok 165gr 924 fps out of a 27 i choose these examples , becuase they represent easily found , effective SD ammo . I picked lighter 40 S&W bullet to where bullets would have similar sectional density..

Naw ... 200 gr LSWC is what my 1911's and other non-Glock 45acp ...

I had a Glock 36 for years ... When I picked up a 30S .. I moved the 36 ... only feeding issue I had with the 36 was with hard cast semi wad cutters ... Wouldn't fed worth heck ... That one reason I picked up the Taurus PT145 Pro ( great pistol )

I really like the 45acp Subcomact platform.. and if I didn't already have three SC 45acp .. Id give the Sheild a serious look.. Glock 30S XDS 45 PT145 Pro

I use Mobile 1 on rails .. and internals on my J frames

Im waiting on the S&W Model 69 L frame 44 mag with a 2.75 inch barrel ... Actually saving my pennies ... and dimes and such

A Airweight 357 mag , will quickly become a 38 spl ...I recently purchased a Taurus 605 SS ... Pocked it up at Academy... Looked it over first .. tight as a drum .. Taurus has the 605 listed on their site as weighing 24 OZ .. On my scales it weighs 20.5 OZ That is not heavy for a all Stainless Steel 357 mag revolver ..in a J frame like size .. I lean toward Ruger revolvers , I really like my GP100 and Security Six both 357 mag and sport 4 inch barrels

40 S&W is a fine self defense round and is chambered in pistols that are easier to conceal and carry .. In other words ... Pistols that can be chambered in 9x19 can be chambered in 40S&W . For example a Glock 26 (9mm) and a Glock 27 ( 40 S&W) are the same size.... The 40 S&W can be found with a wide variety of bullet weights .. From 135gr -200gr As for the 10mm it is on paper very close to the 357 mag in energy ..... that is when tbe 10mm is loaded to its full potential.. alot a times its loaded close to 40 S&W levels .. Myself for my use I lean toward a 40 S&W ... over a 10mm .. If Im going to carry a larger pistol .. I will carry a 45 acp ... which is lower pressure and gits the job down without the fuss ... I read comparing the 10mm to the 40 S&W as to the 357 mag to the 38 spl I disagree .. Its closer to compare 357mag to a 38spl +P+ Double Tap loads a tuff 40 S&W round , useing a 200gr JHP The 40 S&W has energy levels that surpass the 44spl round
