I would saw off a Glock 19 frame to take Glock 26 mags. Probably carry my shield 9 a lot more (if I could).
It goes without saying that everyone here is opposed to government restrictions on magazine capacity, but if you were, for whatever reason, stuck in a locale that limited handgun capacity to 10 rounds, would that have any effect on your choice of round?
I know that prevailing current wisdom is that when it comes to handguns, shot placement and capacity trumps bullet weight/diameter, but when capacity is limited, is it worth trying to milk extra ft. lbs. out of a handgun?
NO issue here. Would not comply.

The answer to this question is already historically proven. The Clinton assault weapon ban limited us to 10 round magazines for a long time. This resulted in a decline in the popularity of the Wonder Nines and rise in popularity of the 40 S&W and the 1911.
Watch this Youtube video...the more experienced of the two shooters actually takes LESS time to fire 30 rounds out of 10-round magazines, than out of 15-round magazines. Capacity makes little difference, if any.
