Zastava P10?

It is the cheapest 10mm you’ll find so I’d say you can’t go wrong. I’d get one if I didn’t already have a few 10s. I’m surprised i haven’t seen or heard of these before as I’ve been following the 10s since the 80s. They must have been quite a limited run. I’d probably stick to bog standard factory loads though, unless $450 is considered disposable to your budget.
This will be my first 10mm, gonna be fun I hope but I plan on reloading with some slightly toned down rounds most of the time. Definitely not looking for anything more powerful than standard loads! For the price,cthe cool factor is way up there. Maybe if someone could translate the video there would be more info! I think if we can get mags, it will likely be from Surbia directly! Nobody in North America knows squat about them. Which makes it even cooler!

Can anybody that shoots therez tell me if the chamber is fully supported, or opened like the glocks helping extraction.
The video I watched , looked like the brass was flying out of there

I don't think anyone has received theirs yet, but one of the videos shows the bottom of the barrel/chamber looks to be open a bit but not sure if that will answer your question.
Used, no warranty, 10 Auto, 30 yo, never heard of.... my first impulse was to order too(did not)
Not used, New old stock! The rest is true and I am a bit of a chance taker, been bitten once or twice but it is what it is, and if you ever tried to get warranty work in Canada for rifles or handguns you know it is an arduous task to say the least.
I have to say parts will be a b!t(h to find. Hopefully if more folks like yourself decide it is too much of a chance the price will drop and I can get a parts gun,,, two is one and one is none!
I watched this video (in Bosnian; no English) on the Zastava Z10 and it was a little troubling to see it go from semi to full-auto @ 1:38, 2:21 and 2:33. I would hope that this problem is specific to the gun in the video and not indicative of the model itself:

At $450, and considering it is based on an enhanced Tokarev frame (which was designed to shoot a cartridge of similar power - assuming basic factory 10mm) it is low risk imo. Then again, I've seen a used Gen 3 Glock 20 go for $600, which is not that much more I suppose.
I always wanted to get a 10mil pistol, so this showed up and I bought one, you may have something there with the Glock, from what I understand the original Colt Delta elite had issues with the 10mm, ( I was waiting for another to come up on the EE as I missed one a few months ago for around $600 also.)But as you say the Glock being made of poly, may be the answer to frame cracking etc as it would give a bit instead of stress crack, I haven't checked out if there are any issues with the G20 or any other Tupperware style 10mm. I am glad to read that they will shoot the .40 cal . As I used to have a .40 and sold it leaving me with 980 rounds of .40!!! Now I have a gun that shoots them! Winning!!!
The Glock 20 has been around since 1991 so there has been 30 years of field testing. A quick Google search of "Glock 20 failures" turns up a few stories but most are ammo related. Using proper factory or reloaded ammo they seem to be as dependable as most any other Glock.I always wanted to get a 10mil pistol, so this showed up and I bought one, you may have something there with the Glock, from what I understand the original Colt Delta elite had issues with the 10mm, ( I was waiting for another to come up on the EE as I missed one a few months ago for around $600 also.)But as you say the Glock being made of poly, may be the answer to frame cracking etc as it would give a bit instead of stress crack, I haven't checked out if there are any issues with the G20 or any other Tupperware style 10mm.

Good to hear, might keep my eye out for a deal, did they say if they were fairly accurate? Using .40 or slightly toned down 10mm, some may say why not just get a .40,,, but then you wouldn't have the option of 10mm regular power! Kind of like .38 and .357!
You may be right, or the mil/le that wanted them decided to go a different way who knows, they aren't for everyone for sure, but they are for me! I'm hoping there are a lot of folks like yourself, and the price drops so I can get another one! The only thing that is of concern to me is Mags, we may be stuck with just two!
Not sure these were any kind of real mil or le order in the 80's...no safety, no decocker, can't carry with a round in the chamber even, that's pretty old tech even for the 80's.
Might be suitable sidearm for a prison cook or some poor middle east or African rebels lol.
