Getting the itch to add 10mm to the arsenal next. I'm partial to the 1911 platform but curious on the OB opinions.

If you decide on a Glock 20, I have a lightly used one I'm thinking of selling. I also have an optic cut slide for it

I had written Kimber off until earlier this year when I ran across the comp X hunter railed in 10mm. I am now about 750 rounds through it and have had exactly 2 stove pipes and that's it and both were with ammo I half way expected it (anemic Winchester white box). I highly recommend it and it is extremely accurate!

If I'm remembering right that target was shot at 15 yards, the top two have 9 rounds each (1 mag). Then the other targets each have 27 rounds (3 mags). With position of the ammo representing which target was shot with what ammo. I have since tried the sig target ammo among and a few others and hands down sig is the best grouping in this gun.

I would have to break it down into two categories....either standard 5" barrel 1911 platform or 6" barrel longslide 1911 platform.

If talking typical 5" barrel 1911 Platforms my order of preference would be:
1.) Dan Wesson RAZORBACK
2.) Colt Delta Gold Cup SS (Manufactured in 1989-1993, then again from 1995-1996)
3.) Colt Delta Elite Manufactured 1987-1996 (Would not own a Colt Delta Elite built after 2020)
4.) Kimber Comp X Hunter - I have been very happy with my Kimbers.
5.) SIG 220 Legion 10MM

If I was looking at a longslide model 1911 platform definitely my preference would be hands down:
1.) Dan Wesson BRUIN or the Dan Wesson KODIAK

Im probably looking 5"

I see you are a DW fan. Thoughts on their Specialist? Looks like a slightly more loaded Razorback to me.

I have a Kimber Eclipse like this one. It's a fine pistol.

S&w pc m&p 2.0 is on my short list. G20 is with a consideration as well, especially since I believe this ammo was developed for it https://www.lostriverammocompany.com/product/10MM-200-Grain-Poly-Coat-Hardcast-Flat-Point-100-RND

I've got a G40 with a Holosun green dot. Lots of fun to shoot, recoil is very manageable.

Once upon a time, for a short while, CZ Customs would did 10mm conversions on CZ-97Bs. Sadly, by the time I had saved up enough cash, they had stopped.

I do love my CZ-97B. And 10mm.

So I bought an EAA Witness, just for gits and shiggles. So far it has run well.

2011s tended to run 10MM better than 40, long long ago.

Not sure how it is, now.

Frankly, the 40 is a good choice.

I preferred the 29, over my 20s, but eventually switched to 21s.

Hot damn that is one nice gun! You should cherish that one. Know what you mean on the single stack…..but you got 8+1. For that quality a handgun I'll learn to put another magazine in fast!

Not a 1911 but this is S&Ws new offering in 10mm.

I like my Banshee SBR

It's allllll tricked out

Banshee, suppressed, with subsonic reloads and an FRT...expensive fun.

Not a 1911 style, but I went with an FN10 Tactical and like it a lot.

The Tanfoglio Witness is a heck of a gun in 10mm!

I have always been a Kimber fan. Owned a few models and my last purchase was two Gold Match 1911 frame's in 9mm. Had to shoot them a lot to finally get them to wear in and quit stove piping. Other than that I really liked them like the others before.

I've always been half tempted to buy a BRNO PSD and the 10mm conversion for it.

But its way, way, way down the line of gun priorities for me right now.

I own several 10mms, and the old timers here know it's my favorite pistol cartridge. Probably started with watching Miami Vice as a kid. My Delta is a customized 1986 model, and my Kimber Stainless Target II is one of the first 1000 10mms Kimber ever made. I ordered it when they were taking pre-orders for them around 2002. I've done custom work on it, too, and it's easily the best shooting pistol I own. With that said I carry and shoot my Glock 20 the most. High capacity, added custom adjustable night sights, and it's just super accurate. It's a great truck/ranch pistol, and I've shot several pigs with it for instant lights out every time. I shoot 200gr XTP reloads in all of them, doing about 1200fps. I hope you reload bc the ammo is expensive.

You're talking me into keeping my Glock 20 !

You're talking me into another 10mm pistol!

I think you need a vintage Delta with a set of my grips.

There is a pristine 1995 Colt Delta Gold Cup on Gunbroker right now. One of the best but hard to find.
