Purists might scoff at the thought of a 1911 in any other caliber than .45 ACP. Difficult to argue against the proposition. John Moses Browning came up with nearly the perfect pistol-ammunition combination lo those 100-plus years ago. However, if the heavy-metal sidearm is your passion, you most likely know there’s an equally, dare we say better chambering available. While the 10mm Auto was not designed specifically for the iconic handgun its eventual marriage to the 1911 was a match made in heaven. Like any good couple, the cartridge and gun bring out the best in each other. Heavy and accurate, the 1911 makes the snappy cartridge more manageable, enhancing its overall accuracy potential. And for its part, the 10mm endows the pistol with the trait most shooters cherish in the 1911 power, and plenty of it. Gad, who could want any more? Thankfully, we live in an exceptional age when 10mm 1911 options abound. True enough, many are expensive affairs running well north of the everyday marksman’s budget
