Iā€™ve seen one come through the shop a few years ago in 7.62 tok
But it was a customs built gun the guys name was Ed I think
he was coming in to see the owner to get a stash of 7.62 tok surplus ammo he had hiding in the back

The 10 mm version has one thing improved/fixed that the .45 acp does not (sorry, I donā€™t recall what).

But, I have heard people say that the 10 mm is as good as the Colt Delta Elite (though, not sure which version of the Colt - with rail, or without - they were referring to - probably the one without).

I, too, am considering an SR1911 in 10 mm.

Talk to yourself often? Probably shouldnā€™t admit that in public, ATF will want your guns backā€¦just sayinā€¦

well there are some advantages to me with 10mm as i carry 40 s&w. Could always trim cases back. Will have to look at ammo prices. Will probably be a 45 tho. I believe the 10mm was an extra few hundred dollars.

the 10 mm shows as being only $40 more than the .45 acp on Buds Gun Shop Online:
