Time for a new pistol in 10mm. I have multiple G21's, 41's, and 1911's and now I'm looking hard at the S&W PC 10mm.

However, seems just about all the reviews have one thing in common... FTF.

Discussions range from blaming ammo, mag design, and/or spring weight. I don't want something I have to tweak after spending $650-$750.

Some of the reviews are over a year old so I'm looking for relatively new purchases and experiences. Ammo wise, 180gr and 165gr is where I'll be.

Thanks.

My 4.6" has been 100%. I bought it probably 3 years ago. I've sold dozens at the gun counter and haven't had any issues with any of them.

I have the 10mm 5.6” barrel PC w/compensated barrel & slide. I bought it the 1st week they were announced. I actually called 2 or 3 LGS’s, they hadn’t heard of them yet. One store that I’d bought from before called me back in 30 mins and said “ I’ll have one in my store tomorrow. If you like it, it’s yours. If not, I’ll put it on display.”  I’ve put 600-700 rds thru it of all bullets weights with zero issues.

I already had two 10mm 1911’s, but I wanted something with more mag capacity for hiking and backpacking in the Rockies.

Whoever double-crosses me and leaves me alive, he understands nothing about Tuco. Nothing!

Thanks for the replies... seems EVERY review and AAR mentions the same thing... FTF's.

He's just saying his 4.6" has been reliable like you did. However he doesn't work in a gun shop.

The ftf issues were mostly with the 4” versions.
I have one and never had an issue with it.

There are lots of videos reference the longer barrel that's why I made this post... I've decided to just pass on the idea for now.
