Well, I have the day off and the wife has to work tomorrow. It sounds like a good day to hit the range and visit some relatives while in their area. I think I am going to put some rounds through my Glock 30SF and a bunch of rounds through it with the 10mm barrel.

I will give a range report tomorrow night! [8D]

I fired 110 rounds(95-180 gr. FMJ & 15-175 gr. Silvertip HP) without any malfunctions. EFK FireDragon makes a good quality .45-10mm conversion barrel. I will hopefully put more through it later this week. This was with G20 10mm mags and the stock recoil assembly.

    I'll think about you while I'm shooting my 1911 with 460 Rowland conversion on it pet my local indoor range. I prefer going up the mountains shooting, but we're supposed to have winter storms through Tuesday here, so I'll have to fight to see my sights in the dungeon

    Very nice job. That compact is a hand full. 10mm used to be my favorite til I got old.

    Thanks! I definitely need a bit more practice with it, but from the 1st 2 mags to the last 2 mags, I made huge strides.

    I forgot to add, I am probably going to buy a 1-2 lb. heavier guide rod spring for the conversion barrel. I know that the 10mm and .45 calibers are the same weight from the factory, but the .45 slide is also slightly lighter. If I fire the real good 10mm loads, it will definitely beat the pistol up a bit.

    Cool. I love other 10mm fans. [:)]

    I got a lot of 10mm's and have rarely changed any springs on any of the guns, unlike most people. I shoot mostly DoubleTap through mine though I have recently started shooting other performance loads but not quite as hot as the DT, Buffalo Bore, Ted Nugent, etc.
    Fanatic collector of the 10mm auto.

    good deal. Happy to hear of the reliability with this set up.
    Some will die in hot pursuit
    And fiery auto crashes
    Some will die in hot pursuit
    While sifting through my ashes
    Some will fall in love with life
    And drink it from a fountain
    That is pouring like an avalanche
    Coming down the mountain
