I've got an extra .40 barrel for my Glock 32 in .357 sig. I use it some at the ranch as it will feed the CCI 40 S&W shot shells slicker than goose chit. It's the only semi-auto that I've ever seen that will reliably feed snake shot with out a hitch. I'll have to get some of those 140 gr copper Barnes bullets and give then a try in my Glock .40 extra barrel. What powder were you loading them with?

Sounds like a plan buddy, I load the 140 barnes' with Power Pistol and Longshot powders, both give equal velocity and accuracy.

The G20 will feed CCI .40 S&W snake shot pretty well, too.

Have heard a lot of good things regarding the EAA 10's Wyogal, me personally, I just can't get past that hard Euro look, I love the way a 1911 feels in hand and shoots.
It's my favorite of all even though it's the only model I've had a few functionality issues with.
And yes, 15 rounds of fast and accurate 10mm would be hard to trump with six 357 mags. I do so understand about the 1911 preference. You gotta do what works for you.

YMMV, but I hope not. They likely won't CYCLE because the impulse from those loads is too low, but they'll feed if you rack the slide. Never found a semi-auto that will cycle CCI snake shot reliably, regardless of chambering/cartridge.

Don't do it! Wait on the SIG, or buy a Dan Wesson. I would not bet $600 of my dollars on RIA.

For $600, get the G40 and call it good.

I have one of the original Delta Elites and I have no complaints after multiple thousands of rounds of full power 10mm. Have a Glock G20 also and have no complaints. I don't rteload 1omm but I use a substantial amount of Win 175g Silvertips and Prvi Partisan 180 hp. Hot stuff No probs.

the Glock is a great Self Defense gun but even Ted Nuggent has moved on to a 1911 style 10mm...

If you want a real 10mm, buy a Delta.
Otherwise, you need a .40.

Now I'm backtracking, another friend of mine told me about how well his brothers RIA 10mm runs, sposed to be reasonably accurate and dead nuts reliable. I called my gunsmith/ffl buddy, he can get me the RIA 10mm #52009 double stack out the door for 625 bucks. Dang-it Gunner! Your a bad Influence! And now you've got me thinking about buying another dadgum 10mm I've already got all 3 Glock models in 10mm plus a Kimber Match 10mm 1911 and the new version of the Colt Delta. But I did not know until this thread that RIA has a new double stack 1911 in 10mm! And after checking on GunBroker just now, I see RIA is also making a Commander size 1911 10mm. So now I can't decide which one to buy yet Also have a couple of close friends that own RIA 10mm and they both swear by them. Another bud has the EAA steel framed 10mm Match or Target 10mm. I'm not a EAA fan, but I was really impressed with his when I shot it. Very accurate and seemed very reliable to. Personally, I wouldn't hesitate to buy either. And as a side note, if your not already hand loading for 10mm, I suggest you stock up on AA-9 powder and Hornady 200 gr XTP bullets. All of my current 10mm's love that combo with max loads, and it's sure death on big feral hogs at the Ranch! After the Witness Compact experience, I'd be a bit gunshy of a Commander format 10mm

Clark Agree. Get the new model and start shooting, loading and have fun. Lot of bang for the buck. It holds it's value more than the others if that even maters.
Gun Shows are almost as comical as boat ramps in the Spring.

yes 4eager, Ted and I both tried a few G20s great gun, great for Self Defense...I was going to try another one (#3) or a G40 with an edge trigger as I have tried a zev and ghost rocket in the other two I bought and sold...but was convinced that you cannot get a 1911 type trigger in the G gun no matter what you do So I opted for a smith 44 magnum but still want a 10mm 1911 maybe a SIG with the external extractor...should they materialize over the next few months..

Lordy, thanks for all the comments and experiences ladies and gentlemen, the choices are far greater than I first anticipated, they all have their certain strong points.
I do know for a fact, I want/need double stack firepower, the most support on the case head, and a Novak style rear sight.

45 Suoer 230 XTP, 100 plus FPS and 10mm XTP, 1300 FPS plus. Same depth of penetration any questions on which one leaves the larger hole?
I got banned on another web site for a debate that happened on this site. That's a first

Agreed JWP, I really used to lean on an all steel 5" 1911 in 45 Super, Starline Super brass and 230 gr FMJ-FP bullets at 1150 were a real eye opener, the 45 Super is a badass for sure.
On my 10mm quest, it's looking like a dang Glock with an after market barrel, that sucks, because a Glock is like aiming/gripping and trying to shoot a damn board to me, they don't fit/feel/point right in my hand.

Gunner, try the Glock Model 40 with the longer barrel and cut for optics already. It handles and balances much differently.
