Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Handguns Smith & Wesson M&P 10mm ?

I shot a dinky whitetail buck with the XTP load. Did an excellent job on an a 30 yard quartering away double lung shot. After ten yards of stumbling and trying to stay upright the buck tipped over. The hardcast are for hogs, bear or the rare mountain lion we have in these parts. I walked up on a big boar hog in the dark a couple weeks while bowhunting. I use a climbing treestand and had that on my back, bow in one hand, was 3/4 mile from the truck on a narrow game trail through an old clear cut and came around a corner when the headlamp caught eyes on the trail about twenty yards ahead. Big hog heard me coming but couldn't wind me so I guess he just waited to see what I was. Anyway, the light hit him and we had a stand off on the trail. I shifted the bow to the ground and slid the G20 out of the Alaskan Guides chest holster. The boar spun and headed up the trail and I could hear him busting brush moving off the ridge. The G20 is a handy thing for me. Kinda nice when you're deboning and quartering a deer by headlamp in the national forest to have it tucked away in that chest holster.

Not sure about putting much faith in rumors, but there is a rumor floating on the Smith & Wesson Forum about a 10mm M&P possibly being in the testing stages at S&W. Wonder if its true and if so, if it may get announced at SHOT show.

I will totally buy one if they release it.

I may be way off course here.


Were there not a bunch of problems with police issue 357 Sig M&P's?

If so, is that platform even close to 10mm compatible?

Those would have been on the Gen 1 frame in the 9/40 size. The 2.0 frame has more steel in the rails and also they would be using the larger 45 sized frame and slide if they did make one I imagine.
