Arik 565 Posted January 30, 2012 Report Share Posted January 30, 2012 Picked up my G20 the other day just for some variety and to have a semi auto, mag fed hand cannon. However lately I've gone away from carrying Glocks and M&Ps (polymers) to carrying all steel guns, namely my Smith 5946. Its about 40oz of stainless steel 9mm with a 17 round capacity. Oddly enough I find it more comfortable then my G19 due to its slimmer design. Good belt and a good holster make the weight a non issue. Anyhow, Saturday I stumbled across a police trade in Smith 1006 in 10mm. Traded in my BHP that I couldn't get to run right + some $$ and here she is. Sorry don't have a pic of the G20. Carried the Smith all weekend in a crossbreed holster. Although it weights in at about 50oz I still find its shape to be easier carried then the lighter but bulkier G19.

YARP 300 Posted January 30, 2012 Report Share Posted January 30, 2012 I foresee the early signs of a 10mm addiction. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Scott Kenny 144 Posted January 30, 2012 Report Share Posted January 30, 2012 Early signs? Only thing missing (that's still in production) is a Delta Elite! Reminds me: does anyone know if a Delta Elite slide will fit on a Para P16 frame, and if 10mm will fit in P16 magazines? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Arik 565 Posted February 6, 2012 Author Report Share Posted February 6, 2012 (edited) Took my, new to me, Smith 1006 and Glock 20 to the range today for a function test. I was low on ammo so I only split one box of Blazer 200gr 10mm fmj. Both guns functioned flawlessly but the Smith was a tack driver! I had a few flyers while I got used to the weight and trigger pull. You can see the grouping getting tighter as I got use to the trigger pull. Afterwards all in the center bullseye @15 yards. The Glock was nice but with the same ammo and distance it clearly looses out to the 1006 in the accuracy department. ***THIS IS NOT A BASH ON GLOCK*** The Smith is just a more accurate gun. Loved them both. Cant wait to get into the hotter stuff! Edited February 6, 2012 by Arik Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Yoshi 87 Posted February 9, 2012 Report Share Posted February 9, 2012 Nice! Glad I dont have that addiction (yet)... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
