Had a feeling this was coming, late last year or early this year I left a comment for the CEO on their website asking about a 1911 10mm. really didn't expect to get an answer but I did. Answer was very vague kind of like "we can't talk about future products" or something like that.
While you really can't compare the two I have been more than happy with my Ruger 1911 in 9mm, I can see one of these in my future. The SIG 220-10 is still my favorite 10mm....so far. Maybe S&W will do another run of 610s now?

Half the cost? Maybe 3/4s, but the ruger is bound to be pretty cheap. Then again for 1911s a $700 1911 becomes a $1000 1911 in reality because it will take at least one trip to a gunsmith for mods and upgrades.

Anyone thinking about selling a Glock in 10mm for this gun is not making sane choices. It's two different ballgames. Getting rid of a G20 or a G29 to buy one of these is silly. Getting it on its own as its own gun? not a terrible idea.

Picked one up today. Fit and finish is above par for an SR1911, now hopefully she shoots. Will post my impressions after a range session. Its also a heavy SOB, I imagine she'll be a soft shooter.

Not everyone loves Glocks as much as you Mike.
Looks like a good gun for the money. But personally I'd save up a few more dollars and get the DW Bruin Bronze instead....If I ever decide to get a 10mm....
Get this with a giant old school tube red dot on it so you can re-enact terminator 1 at the steel challenge.

I bought one . Not a ruger fan but that might have just changed . The gun is very well put together . I'm shooting 180 grain sig ammo. Two failures to lock the slide back in the first fifty rounds , I've now run 250 down range with no other issues. . Don't care for the front sight and have one of those radioactive one on the way . I also didn't care for the rubber grips and replaced with wood . Sig locally runs 30bucks for a box of 50 , trader John has puc 180 jhp for 25 , no tax , no id. . Old 1911 shooter but new to 10mm and having a ball with this new gun

Funny how S&W seems to be missing out on the 10mm resurgence. Seems like many of the manufacturers have at least one 10mm, even Remington has one.
Still doesn't maake it any less of a dumb idea, unless the 20/29 doesn't fit the person and they can't shoot it well, but neither of the people who had tthem in this thread stated that....

I'd do a Specialist or Valor in 10mm....in about 10 naanoseconds. The Bruin would have been something I bought in bowling pin days...

Took the Ruger out for a spin Sunday, put a hundred rounds of Sig and AE 180s thru it. No malfunctions and accuracy was very good, probably would be much better in a different pair of hands..![[laugh]](/xen/styles/default/xenforo/smilies.vb/012.gif "Laugh [laugh]")
and function flawlessly with the Wilson Combat 10mm mags I already had. I think they may have a hit with this one, a well built 10mm for under $800 bucks, time will tell.

LOL...Maybe not, lot of hardware was needed for that...
"In 1984, laser sights were rare, and required a high level of power. This helium neon laser needed 10,000 volts to turn on, and a further 1,000 volts to maintain its brightness. The cables were run up Arnold's arm to a battery that was in his M65 field jacket. The laser was activated by his other hand."
