Smaug said:To me, a combat pistol is not suitable for hunting, unless you happen to be presented with a close shot. (like 25 yds. or less) Maybe you're a fantastic shot with a 10 mm Glock and can keep them all in a paper plate at 50 yards.
Otherwise, go the conventional route and get a revolver in 357, 41, or 44 Magnum.
Well the 10mm isn't your typical combat pistol caliber.
Ballistically the 10mm falls between .357 magnum and the .41 magnum, and let's not forget you can also use a 6" barrel to increase the 10mm's performance.
There in lies the real advantage to the 10mm it gives you magnum revolver ballistics but in a 15+1 round pistol.
You don't have to be a "fantastic" shot to put the rounds in the paper at 50 yds, if you can do it with a .357 magnum you can do the same thing with a 10mm.
