What should I do?

[Bishop]

Looking to purchase a new gun. I found a deal on 10mm rounds. Can get 900 JHP full loads for $350. Thought this was a good deal. So I've been looking for a Glock 29. Been all over local gun shops and went to the Lafayette gun show. Nothing available. Not surprised. Now I'm wondering if I should get a .30-06 instead and pass on the great deal for the 10mm rounds. The only rifles I currently own are a 91/30 and 10/22. Thinking the .30-06 would be a nice addition. I currently have a .40 xd which I love, a sig p238 and s&w 686 for my ccw. Not sure what I need most. Another ccw, or a nice rifle. Any thoughts? Don't plan on doing anything special with either option, just want to buy a new toy for the collection.

Sounds like you could use a shotgun, unless you don't hunt or trap shoot or anything like that. If not, I would go with a new rifle, and .30-06 would be a fine caliber.

I am in a similat perdicament right now, but since shotguns are selling very cheaply right now I think Im going to go that route.

Depending on the brand of 10mm JHP's you can get...It's fairly easy to get the Prvi Partizan 10MM JHP's for $20/box of 50, which works out to $360 for 900 rounds...not that great of a deal. I shot them all the time when I had my Glock 20C. Not a very hot round, but it cycled the gun. I'm thinking the 900 rounds is not enough for me to jump into a new caliber...particularly when that caliber is going to start costing me a butt load of dough once my initial "wad" is shot.

That Prvi gives 10mm a bad name. Im considering getting rid of all my 10mm in favor of as much underwood as I can get for the money I get out of my existing ammo.

OP, look for something like an M1 garand. THAT is a 30-06 you could have a LOT of fun with!

Hey Bishop if you're still looking for a Glock in 10mm Terre Haute guns has a new 29sf for $550ish. I think there website is terrehauteguns.com. It would be a little bit of a drive for you but worth it if you had your mind set on a 10mm.

Glock 29 and 29sf at Midwest gun exchange for 619.00 they also have a 20-c for 649.00.

If your looking for a 10mm, I have The Witness 10mm Tanfoglio. Its a lot better looking then a Glock, but if you want the Glock then get it. 10mm is a beast. Im trying to sell it or trade it. One of the vendors at the Lafayette show last weekend wanted to trade me for the XD 40 straight up but I already have the XD 40. I paid a little over $600 for it.

 

[84VETTE]

Both are good options, i have a glock 29 and a 30-06 bolt gun. i shoot the 10mm considerably more often.

Sometimes you just have to be patient. If you really want a 10mm Glock, wait it out and pay a reasonable price for one when the dust settles.

 

[TheGlockinator]

Either choice

no matter what you decide to do,it will be extremely hard to find a Glock 29 or good .30-06 rifle at a reasonable price. If you can get it for a good deal, i think buying a ccw or rifle would be a good choice. Think about the future....

I saw a couple glock 29s at Fort Wayne gun show over the weekend.... Don't remember the dealer tho they were priced 650 or so

Haven't tried in Terre Haute yet. Thanks for all the responses, I will check it out. If I can leave the wife at home I might get both. Better to ask for forgivness instead of permission sometimes.

 

[Bishop]

Thanks for the help guys. I think I'm going to go with the .30-06.

Looking at old posts for fun. Didn't buy the 10mm or the 30.06. But, got all my bases covered. Thank you to everyone that responded. Love this site. God bless.
