Here it is. I shot it Saturday. Runs like a sewing machine. Can't wait to get it in the woods.  |

Pretty tricked out. I'm seeing, my POV, a slick home defense gun. Your intended targets afield ?

Congrats ! I also believe they are field worthy, was only curious as to how far up the food chain you are going with it.

His was built on a 1911 frame. He used to load the cartridge long, about the same COL as the 10mm, and his loads clocked like he was shooting 10mm. |

I've also got a long barrel 40 S&W built on a G35 with an extended Long Wolf Barrel.
Handloads with Longshot virtually match a 10mm 5" gun.
