- I keep hearing vaguely worded criticisms of the 10mm cartridge, but I
- can never get any specifics. I understand that the FBI dumped the
- 10 after having problems. Were these problems:
-
- 1) feed problems (possibly caused by FBI-required modifications
- 2) overpressure problems causing damage to the pistols
- 3) control problems caused by recoil and/or blast
- ????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????
-
- Does anyone know the real story?
