So I picked up a Glock 20 from a friend a couple days ago and have a couple questions:
This will be my new carry gun so I’m trying to decide on ammo. I see no point in carrying a 10mm with ammo no more powerful than a 40 S&W. This basically leaves me with Georgia Arms, Double Tap and Buffalo Bore to choose from.
Although Cor-Bon generally loads hot ammunition it looks like their 10mm is a little wimpy. Probably because they are trying to promote their .400 Cor-Bon. Winchester Silvertips and Hornady XTP are definitely hotter than the others but nothing like the 10mm is capable of.
So of the three manufacturers that produce full power 10mm (Georgia Arms, Double Tap and Buffalo Bore) who do you feel has the highest manufacturing standards. I always thought of these manufacturers as producing plinking or hunting ammo not ammo to stake your life on. Am I wrong in this assumption? Do you know if any of these manufacturers seal the primer and case mouth, load with flash free powders, use virgin brass.
I could call them up first but would rather ask here first.
Also I’m going to need a stiffer recoil spring. Does Glock make a factory heavy recoil spring. If not who makes the best one. I really don’t care about the cost; I just want to use the best parts and ammunition.
Thanks, Dan
