The 10mm sucked for the FBI
The 10mm Auto, initially powerful, proved problematic for the FBI due to recoil and wear, leading to the development of the reduced 'FBI load.' This compromise eventually resulted in Smith & Wesson shortening the case to create the .40 S&W, fitting it into 9mm-sized frames. The video details the S&W 1076, an FBI-adopted pistol featuring a frame-mounted decocker and single-stack magazine.
