Behind the scenes
“I picked 10mm since it wasn't popular, had been tested by the FBI at one point (and it was too much for agents to handle), but it was basically a gun nut (which I am one) kind of round. .45 might have made more sense, but I was looking for something with a little twist.”— Chris Taylor
