Title: SAR ST 10mm
Post by: Intercooler on August 17 2012 12:37:16 AM MDT
  EAA said they didn't know when for this 10mm. Does this mean they are close to being here?

According to the article and the shot of the barrel, this is a 9mm, not a 10mm.

True but isn't the 10mm version the same? Hopefully we see it this year. Can I own another 10mm  :o

What other semi-auto pistol manufacturer uses the same platform for 9mm and 10mm? I can't think of any, and wouldn't expect the 10mm version to be the same as 9mm in this one either. Is there any indication they even make this in a 10mm?

Ever hear of a Witness? From .22 to 10m including 9mm.

Yes, I've owned several. The 10mm and 45's are not the same as the 9's and 40's. Larger frame, larger mag well. Slides are different too.

That's what I saw.  The article mentions nothing of a 10mm, or a 10mm model being offered.  The only "10" is in the model number.

Some "semi-auto pistol manufacturers" offer pistols of the same frame platform with 9mm and 10mm (among others).  SAR isn't one of them.

Sarsilmaz indicated the K2 would be offered in 10mm.  This I still hope for.  The K2 is a CZ-75 copy with specs increased to accomodate 10mm/45 acp length cartridges, similar to the large frame Witness.

This gun appears to be similar to an HK USP, though superficial similarity may be all there is.  And no multi-caliber information has turned up.  It is listed as a 9mm only every I can find.

Not true on Witness guns today. All are large frame.

I believe that is true now.  But that change is only as of a year of so ago.  Used to you had to specify frame size for 40S&W and 9mm conversion kits in case you had the small frame variant.
