shawnba67 Posted September 9, 2013 Share Posted September 9, 2013 I have a match in 9mm I have been using in limited division uspsa. I bought a 10mm LS on gbroker. With the cost of 10mm brass and availability I'm looking into a 40 option. I like the idea of getting a 6in barrel and adding an extension (compensator like style without the barrel ports) to extend the sight radius. I have 2 k10 mags, the price of mags would factor into this final cost number I need 3 total. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kneelingatlas Posted September 9, 2013 Share Posted September 9, 2013 It's sounds like you've got a plan all worked out. The 6" barrel runs $185 from EAA, and I suggest Numrich for the comp ($42). You'll also need a custom guide rod to index the comp. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shawnba67 Posted September 11, 2013 Author Share Posted September 11, 2013 What about the mag's? can I run 40 thru my 10mm magazines? Would i have to load them long? Any one have any luck with this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Intercooler2 Posted September 11, 2013 Share Posted September 11, 2013 If they shoot .40 in a G20 out of the same 10mm barrel it should work in a Tanfoglio. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shawnba67 Posted September 11, 2013 Author Share Posted September 11, 2013 Got to wondering if 40 long might be the cheapest answer. Load a heavy bullet out as long as possible. In mine a 180 MG JHP hits the rifling at 1.280. guess it would out of 40 brass also???? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wouldn't try this as with your bullet touching the rifling will increase pressure and if you load 40 long into a 10MM barrel the extractor will be the only thing holding the round when the firing pin hits the primer which is hard on the extractor. Try to get a .40 barrel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
