The Double Action was steady but pretty rough, worse than a double action revolver. It was still very shootable though.
Anyhow the overall weights loaded seem about right, I thought you were going with unloaded weights.

Yeah I should have listed them as loaded so there wasn't any confusion. They were talking about carrying them, you're going to carry them loaded is the reason I weighed them that way. Also I was too lazy to take the mag out.
The DA pull on my S&W 586 is heavy, but consistent doesn't feel sloppy like on some semi-autos. In SA it beats all, give it a slight tap.
Also we have gotten off topic. About the 10mm.
The reason it was developed. In the 1986 FBI Miami shootout. Agent Jerry Dove fired a Winchester 9mm 115 grain Silvertip at Michael Platt. It went through his right arm and lung and stopped an inch from his heart. (Platt ended up killing Dove and Agent Grogan) Instead on developing a new cartridge they should have developed better loadings for the 9mm. Which they have nowadays. Also Platt was shot a total of 12 times and he wasn't on any drugs like the North Hollywood guys. The human body can take a lot. No matter what the round.
