Sailormilan2 Posted November 16, 2016 Report Share Posted November 16, 2016 I am still learning the 1911 platform, and being retired, I like to tinker. I recently found that I had not properly fitted my 9mm barrel to its slide. So, after doing a bit of filing, I went to the range. At the same time, I took a little Detonics style 45acp that I set up to use a Commander slide in 10mm. Here are the range results. Both targets are shot at 15 yds. I know I loaded 9 rounds into the mag for the 9mm, but I can only find 8 holes. The 10mm, with its short mag, only holds 7. It's quite a handfull with full house loads. I still need to work the trigger pull down. I've worked on it, and now it is only about 5 1/2#,but that is down from what it used to be. Off the scale, but estimated at 10 -12#. Here's the little gun, with the 45acp on top, and the Commander slide with 10mm barrel beneath. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
