Magnum Research 10mm

Post by Ernie » Sat Jun 03, 2023 2:32 pm

Magnum Research is one of my trusted Manufacturers and I have a hard time turning away. I have been kind of/sort of looking at 10mm and when I handled this 1911 I decided it was time to get one. Don't know when I will shoot it as I have another appt. with the Doc about my right retina Friday concerning blurriness. But it will happen.

Was assured that I can get an adjustable rear sight for it.

my gun inspector approves. Great trigger, tight, and bull barrel.

Thanks that means a lot to me coming from you. I have a hard time walking away from Dan Wesson and Magnum Research both.

When it comes to brass throwers its 1911’s and CZ style pistols that get my attention. Nice gun Ernie Im sure you will enjoy it. Put your best meat hook grip on that bad boy when you touch off a few 10’s. There is some hp there

Don't worry about getting older and still doing stupid stuff. You'll do the stupid stuff as always, only much slower. Hold my beer and watch this.......

Nice, I am not big on the 10mm, but that is one spiffy looking 1911

Congrats on the MR!! I have a MR .45 1911 and am very impressed with it. Function, trigger pull and accuracy is very close to being the equal of my Les Baer UTC and that's at a third of the price. I've got more than a few 1911's but no 10mm and there always seems to be 10mm brass left laying around at the range...and I've been picking it up. :lol: :idea:

Nice looking piece my friend. I never jumped on the 10mm bandwagon, only because I didn't want to add another caliber to load. Same reason I don't own a 44 mag. Always wanted both a Model 29 and a Charter Arms Bulldog, but just never wanted to add 44 caliber to the Dillon Press.

Will look forward to the range report!

:D Awesome manufacture of an awesome platform in an awesome caliber.

Hmmmm a lot of awesome here!


Al, I’m with you. I have slowly over the years limited my center fire brass throwers to 1911, CZ and a few S&W 3rd gen steel semi’s including one in 10mm.

I've had a couple 1911s in 10mm and really enjoyed shooting the 10mm. I found the 10mm to be an easily controlled round in a 191, considering its power level. Great flat shooting distance cartridge for a 1911. My problem for me going 10mm, now, is the extra effort to rack the slide with the heavier 10mm springs needed. Some days the arthritis makes racking the slide on any semi-auto a challenge, even a 22 semi-auto. One reason I shoot mostly revolvers in my old age.
