I always thought it was cheeky that a lot of pistols in Fallout take 10mm ammo.
10mm ammo is a real thing, tho
And is expensive as fuck. As is the downgrade, .40 cal.
Maybe it's changed since I last had to purchase any, but it was twice as expensive as .45 bullets, and the guns always seemed subpar to other calibers anyway.
Ah, good to know.
Tbf 10mm Auto is a real caliber (that the FBI tried to use but "it hurted their wrists" so .40SW was invented.)

SW stands for Soft Wankers.
Sore wrists
LOL it might as well since their weak ass wrists couldn't take it!
(For those who are wondering it's of course actually "Smith & Wesson.")
Ah, yes, that also makes sense.
