Is that a bald spot? Total hairlet humiliation, bros. *runs hand through full head of hair*
 
"The Revolution devours its own children"

So this commie guy makes a video about "Red Fudds", basically leftist people who hold guns like the AK, SKS, Tokarev and whatnot in high regard and think they are superior to ARs and Glocks and other "capitalistic crap". Video features opinions from such people as Karl Kasarda, Tacticool Tranny etc.


Aaaaaand, the end result of this video being posted on /r/SocialistRA/ is:

Seeing this man be repeatedly too fat to maintain a proper manual of arms is the best argument for Communism I've ever seen.

Wobble faster or the capitalists will eat you, tovarish!
 
I wish I had the extra scratch to buy one of their Gorka Suits.
Gorka suits are supposed to be cheap, that was always the appeal since it’s just canvas. Getting yourself some surplus lvl 5 PCUs is more bang for your buck. Or some surplus modern Russian gear that is actually water resistant even.
 
The real problem is it's not as good of a gimmick as 9mm Winchester or .357 sig and generally requires you to go up to a 45 ACP size frame.
There's just no real use case for it unless you're one of the 1% of the population who genuinely has to worry about self defense against bears and moose, don't have a longarm available to you, and don't want a large bore revolver.

.357 Sig at least has the argument of .357 magnum performance out of a 9mm frame with .40S&W capacity.

It also doesn't help that probably 90% of all commercially available 10mm Auto loads are actually downloaded to .40S&W specs too.
 
I think 10mm was irreversibly damaged by being marketed as a defensive cartridge. The juice isn't worth the squeeze for basically anyone in that use case. Calling it a hunting cartridge probably would have helped a lot with adoption. If Cooper, etc. really, absolutely had to pitch it to the FBI, then maybe only pitch it as a gun for HRT or one of the other tactical teams.

The counter argument is that you basically need to market any potential handgun cartridge coming to market that way. Handgun hunting and silhouette shooting is a niche demographic and technically 10mm was ostensibly developed (or at least matured into) a defensive cartridge due to the FBI.

With that said a PCC/PDW/SMG with a ten or twelve inch barrel chambered in either 10mm Auto or .357SIG would be really fucking cool.

I think 10mm was always going to be doomed to semi-obscurity, but I think the handgun hunting/trail pistol niche would have let it gain more traction and get more development. Trying it with the FBI basically highlighted everything a reasonable person would immediately intuit from just looking at the spec sheet. It just sucks to shoot in anything compact enough to be a duty pistol for most people. Most people just don't like shooting high-recoil guns, but handgun hunters basically get off on hand and wrist torture.

If I had the means to own an MP5/10, I'd have six.
