10 MM CZ
« on: April 10, 2023, 06:32:26 AM »
Besides the Dan Wesson guns, does CZ offer a 10 MM pistol? If not, does anyone offer a conversion barrel setup?

Looks like CZ custom will build you one for the right price.

Looks like that article is a few years old. I may be wrong,  it I don’t think CZC does the 10mm conversion anymore.

A CZ in 10mm? Shades of Jeff Cooper's Bren Ten . . . ?

Tanfoglio used to offer it. Might be as close as you'll get.

The Bren Ten was offered by Dixie/Dixon something or another, right? I know it was a Cooper inspired project to whatever extent from the writings back then. If I recall correctly the first shortened version of the ten was due to FBI recruits having trouble with the actual 10mm (?) I cant remember. In any case, it seems that the 10 makes for BIG guns.....not that that is always bad O0

The FBI made the switch to 10mm after the infamous 1986 Miami shootout. Smith & Wesson made the guns the FBI adopted which were the models 1006 and 1076. The 10mm being a hefty recoiling round made it hard to master for small handed men and women and shortly thereafter the .40S&W was born.

I ordered a Colt Delta 10mm when they were first announced and waited 10 months for delivery. Ammunition was either expensive or not available. When it could be found I found out it threw brass like my H&K91. It's still in the safe with 3 magazines fired through it. Yup, a little more recoil than the 45. I bought the Ruger 10mm/38-40 convertible to play with. Brass recovery is much easier. A 5" or 6" S&W 610 would make a nice happy me present someday.
A CZ TS2 in 10mm would be interesting.

EAA used to make a Witness in 10mm. There must still be a few out there. CZ clone, so it would be close to a 75.

Dornaus and Dixon, the world famous Bren Ten...I knew a guy who had one and really regrets selling it. Magazines are insanely expensive, too, due to the manufacturer of the mags not following through, so many guns were shipped sans mag. They have been out of print for decades.

EAA was the former importer for Tanfoglio, the manufacturer of the Witness and several other high-quality CZ75 clones chambered in 10mm for self defense and competition. Now Tanfoglio (along with FK Brno) is imported and distributed in the US by the Italian Firearms Group.

Would love to see those chambered in 7.5 FK Brno as well as 10mm!
