All the talk of the 10mm and I just couldn't resist. From an estate sale: a Colt Delta Elite Enhanced, 2 mags, fixed 3-dot sights, wrap around rubber grips with the lil red triangle, big ole beavertail, flattop slide, plastic trigger and plastic MSH, series 80. It is a beautiful, dark blue with the ONLY flaw is the obligatgory idiot mark. $600. It has been shot but very little. It just needs lube and ammo. Just couldn't pass it up. Range report soon.
 
I wouldn't of passed that up either. Its definitely about $200 short of what they are selling for now.

Give her a good cleaning and shoot that gem. You'll love it.

Now you have to get into reloading if you don't already.
 
I've got the reloader and it is setting on ready. Just need to make some empty brass now! I have some factory ammo to make it from.
 
Hope you can find your empty brass! 10mm seems to really launch the empties.

Only worse brass recovery percentage I have than with my two 10mm (Delta Elite and EAA Witness) is my .380 Kel-Tec P3AT.

10mm is my favorite auto pistol cartridge caliber. It gets the job done and is quite controllable, despite what a lot of people say IMHO. The only problem for me is the expense and availability of the ammo...not terrible, but noticeable compared to .40 and 9mm. Oh, and yeah the guns are on the large side.
 
The 'idiot mark' is the lil half moon scratch on the side of the frame caused by improper installation of the slide stop lever.

I got bit by the 10 mm bug myself. Bought the EAA Witness full size steel wonder finish just today.Haven't even had a chance to shoot it yet. I hope that 10 mm makes a strong come back so that ammo prices come down somewhat.
 
10mms are sweet. I prefer the Witness over the 1911, but might be picking up a G20 sometime this year.
