I probably won't but another colt 1911 but the revolver is on my radar. I am still wanting another 10mm 1911 worse though.

I bought an XD(M) 4.5 10 last year to use for hunting white tail deer in the swamp down here. I was thinking about getting a 10mm 1911, but I really like the idea of buying something that I could beat the crap out of and not care. I spent an evening reading reviews online. I couldn’t find a bad one on the 10mm XD(M), so I got one the next day.

It shoots great, and I talked Jim at Panther into making me a holster for it. At first he declined, since he didn’t have a blue gun for it; but he came around, and worked it out just fine.

Nice gun Rick. I have an XSE Commander which is quite similar.

And speaking of Brent he landed at US Armament as project mgr for the new Colt licensed 1903 hammerless pistol.

He peeks in on the Colt forum every now and then

Thanks, Saiid.

I’ll have to check the Colt forum out; haven’t been there in quite a while.
