  • Wrapping up our series on FBI pistol standards, we're looking at the newest qualification test from 2019. We're also digging into the FBI's sidearm choices from the 90s to the present, including the infamous 10mm ordeal.
    We skipped the 2013 FBI test, but you can catch that here: • Start Shooting Better ...

    If you can get access to an Army range you might want to give the Army Combat Pistol Qualification Course a try. Superficially, it is not particularly challenging but it has one feature that makes it quite difficult. Unlike other qualification courses which use a fixed target, the CPQC uses pop up targets at ranges 5-32 meters. Instead of strings of fire at a fixed range you can go from 5m to 32m to any range in between for each stage.

      This, and the "new" M4 Individual Weapons Qualification (IWQ). In the case of not having access to an IWQ range, I've had the idea of using the M16 ALT-C target at 25m, and still following the engagement order

  • @boatrat
    @boatrat Місяць тому +14

    I've got it. What we NEED, is a "documentary" episode of Manny Mansfield reciting the traditional myths about the 10mm/.40S&W story. But you cut back and forth to regular Chris Baker interjecting the necessary factual corrections between key points in Manny's Mythical Monologue, like a political rebuttal in a news-analysis show. The Surprise Rise and Sudden Fall of the .40-cal. market should be a key theme, along with the generation-long gradual rising tide of popular support for the 10mm. With special mention of the recent proliferation of new chassis chambered for 10mm, even as .40 now fades.
    Then there's a feel-good ending to resolve an lingering awkwardness between Manny and Chris: Despite their differences, we all agree that an ascendant trend in 10mm cartridge sales is worth celebrating.
    Then for part 2 of the whole 10mm saga, you can cover the really touchy practical controversies:
    1) The debatable practice of shooting .40 S&W from a 10mm chamber.
    2) The problem of two dramatically distinct power-level categories for 10mm ammo, and the benefits (or necessity!) of changing recoil springs in your semi-auto to accommodate the difference.

    Oh - My - Gosh. Chris you are brilliant. I can't thank you enough for your clear and concise statements that recoil was NEVER a problem with the 1076 and FBI service loads. I have been refuting this narrative for over a decade in online forums. It is so refreshing to hear an accurate account in your narrative. Kudos!

    • @j.murphy4884
      @j.murphy4884 Місяць тому

      Yeah, for those who don't know (haven't watched the vid yet myself) the FBI was always going to adopt the 10mm in a down loaded form, it was on the initial requirements. The reality is that the gun guys wanted the .45 ACP, but the military had just dumped it, so that was never going to fly with the budget. And the 1076 was an absolute POS.

      But the BS story goes that the S&W 1076 wasn't durable enough nor controllable with Norma-spec loads. However, the FBI selected the Mid-Velocity specification before they ever solicited a 10mm issue pistol, much less awarded the contract for the 1076. The 170gr Norma was only tested in a Colt Delta Elite, personally supplied by the FTU's chief John Hall.
