I had a glock 20 and a 29. I sold the 20 but still have the 29. Great gun.
Really great round!
I carried the 29 on my Bighorn Sheep hunt recently anticipating for an encounter with a Cat.
No Cat,No Snakes but killed a nice Ca. Bighorn in Oregon.(rifle)
When I returned from the hunt I too picked up one of the RIA 10mm Tactical (no rail)
My dealer was kind enough to hold it for me until I got back. This is a fun gun to shoot!
I have shot it 50 rounds and everything is good. I need to polish the ramp and slide also maybe some light trigger work but I want to get to 500 rounds then look at it again.Winter is coming and I will have plenty of time after Elk season. I had a couple of no feeds with a full mag. when babying the slide I got a little more aggressive with it and it worked fine. I think the ramp along with break in will cure the issue.
I am shooting Nosler 180gr hand loads with 11gr. blue-dot and the recoil is very manageable.
So far great gun for the money and accurate.
I am happy with it.
I also have a STI 1911 spartan in 9mm and it is also a great gun now that it is broke in.
They are made in the Philippians as well.
