This video details the installation and testing of the DPM Systems Telescopic Recoil Reduction System on a Glock 29 chambered in 10mm Auto. The expert instructor notes the system's 100% reliability but concludes that while it functions, the inherent recoil of the 10mm cartridge remains substantial, with benefits being less pronounced than in lower-pressure calibers.

Quick Summary

The DPM Systems Telescopic Recoil Reduction System was tested on a Glock 29 in 10mm Auto, demonstrating 100% reliability. While functional, the system's recoil reduction benefits are less pronounced with the powerful 10mm cartridge compared to lower-pressure rounds like .45 ACP, though it still offers some mitigation.

The DPM Systems Telescopic Recoil Reduction System proved 100% reliable on the Glock 29 in 10mm Auto. However, the instructor noted that while it functions, the significant recoil inherent to the 10mm cartridge remains substantial, with benefits being less dramatic than in lower-pressure calibers.

What ammunition was used to test the DPM system on the Glock 29?

The test utilized Sig Sauer Elite Performance 10mm ammunition. This load features a 180-grain Full Metal Jacket (FMJ) bullet, achieving a muzzle velocity of 1250 feet per second and generating 624 foot-pounds of muzzle energy.

What are the key differences in recoil reduction between 10mm Auto and .45 ACP with the DPM system?

According to the instructor's experience, the recoil reduction from the DPM system is more noticeable and impactful when used with lower-pressure cartridges like .45 ACP (tested on a Glock 30 Gen 4) compared to the higher-pressure 10mm Auto cartridge.

What specific Glock 29 generation was featured in the video?

The video specifically highlights a Glock 29 Gen 3. The instructor points out its durable 'frying pan' finish, a characteristic of this generation, and notes its unique history of being a dealer's 'misfit toy'.
