[QUOTE="redchinviking, post: 2864907, member: 110512"] I will be headed to the MT unlimited units this fall into some high density grizz country and subsequently am in the market for a good 10mm auto polymer and had decided on the FN510 for a good host of reasons. Had one on layaway at my local gun shop when a friend of mine mentioned it’s a good idea to have the smith and Wesson m&p 2.0 with safety because you can pack it in a kydex holder with one in the chamber on safety and be ready to go on a fast encounter with mr/mrs grizz. For those of you that are versed in packing 10mm’s in the grizz backcountry: [LIST] [*]Does having a safety weigh in your decision? [*]Would you feel comfortable packing in steep terrain with a round in the chamber on a kydex chest holster (under bino harness)? [*]Did you ever wish you had one in the chamber when you didn’t? [*]Am I overthinking this?! (Usually) [*]Are there any other polymer 10’s with safeties? [*]Other considerations? [/LIST] The S&W is 5oz lighter than the FN and with the price difference I am strongly considering switching but I like the reputation, features, and ergos of the FN more. Help steer me to the right decision. [/QUOTE]
