    Maybe a G21 with a 10mm barrel to start then step up to 460 if I wanna get stupid. I like to have fail safes and having 45 super laying around with ACP is not fail safe.

    I wouldn't get the G21 to do 10mm because the geometry is not the same. There might be extractor/ejector issues coupled with possible magazine issues- I'm not sure if the bore axis is in the same position in a converted 10mm versus a native 10mm. If I wanted "magnum" power out of the 21 (or 41) I would look at .45 super or .460 rowland.

    .45 acp can be pretty cheap now. On sgammo it is 26 cents per round for blazer brass. This is making me want a Glock 41.

    I think I've come full circle back to the G20 anyway. I'm looking at 525 or so total for a G21 plus barrel and springs to go to 45 super. I can get a g20sf for 550 and it's a factory gun, designed for the cartridge from the start.

    And if I absolutely hate it, we'll it's a freaking glock, I can get rid of it in about 30 seconds and probably not lose much $ on it.

    Stopped by another LGS yesterday afternoon. They had a MINT S&W 1076 they'd just gotten in trade. I was sorely tempted, and still am to an extent. The guys were talking about tossing it on gunbroker but I'm sure I could buy it if I so desired....

    Took the high cap requirement out back and shot it this afternoon.

    Stopped by a different lgs and they had a kimber stainless target ii that someone did a NICE trigger job on with at least a few Wilson combat components for 925 out the door.

    I honestly blacked out for a minute, woke up with a wallet 300 lighter and a pistol on lay a way lol

    So to resurrect my thread, I pulled my kimber off lay a way yesterday. Then I get home and later in the evening I get an email from the lgs, and they've got glock 21s for $350. So now I have the 10mm AND I'm gonna do a 460 Rowland lol

    Unfortunately it's not the 21sf but for 350 I'm not gonna quibble

    No. LE trade ins. The one I got has some holster wear but looks like it's barely been fired.

    Picture isn't showing up.

    That's a great price. Buy a conversion barrel and 15 dollar worth of new springs...... and you still come out cheaper then factory new.

    Tip: make sure you get a heavier recoil spring for the 10mm and 460 Rowland loads.
