You will love it, particularly the heavier loads offered by Buffalo Bore, Double Tap and perhaps others.

Better yet, get into reloading and come up with your own (not to mention far cheaper) loads that are equally as powerful. But don't plan on saving money unless you load a lot because, given the cost of reloading equipment, you'll have to pull that handle a lot before you make up what it cost to get set up. However, the fun part of reloading isn't just money -- it's the pride you have in coming up with your own load. Plus, reloading is relaxing. I can't think of anything else and reload at the same time. I'd better not be thinking of other stuff, let's put it that way; otherwise, somebody else can shoot my ammo.

Thanks! This G20SF joins my other G20SF and my G29SF in my current 10mm collection. I started with a G20 back in the mid-1990s. I have also owned a Colt Delta Elite and an EAA Witness in 10mm. The G20SF is my primary carry gun and I bought the new one as a rotation gun or second carry gun.

I have not tried any Double Tap 10mm. I have a good stock of Buffalo Bore 180gr. JHP, Cor-Bon 180gr. Hunter, and Winchester 175gr. Silvertip ammunition. The local Wholesale Sports store has a good stock of Buffalo Bore ammo at good prices. With my 5% military discount, it is very close to internet prices. The Winchester and Cor-Bon I usually get from Cheaper Than Dirt. I have a case of Sellier & Belot 8X57 JS Mauser ammo that is on the FedEx truck for delivery today from Cheaper Than Dirt.

I should have started reloading many years ago when I was shooting one or two calibers. Now, I shoot nineteen different calibers of center-fire ammo from .380 ACP to .458 Lott. I recently looked into buying a progressive loader and all of the accessories to reload all nineteen calibers and the cost was enormous. At sixty five years old, I don’t think I would break even in the remainder of my lifetime. I also would never carry with reloads and I only practice with what I carry.

The 2022's are flawless in general and very reliable. I carry one in 9mm and it has never had a failure of any kind. Don't write them off as they're nothing like the 250's.

I've sold a few Glocks in the past, but I had been thinking of picking up one in 9mm for a while. Ran across this Austrian proofed 19 a week or so ago. Shoots nice and is in my carry rotation now.

Hey Para do you still have a nice picture of your G26 smooth finger groove model? That photo was the reason I hunted down one just like it.

I certainly ain't Para but his talk about switching all his triggers to smooth ones also made me want to try it. I bought one and swapped it out, a very easy thing to do. I think it's a good improvement.
