Anyone tried the KKM 10mm G41 barrel yet?

I see KKM now offers a 10mm conversion barrel for the G41. Anyone tried this yet?

There has been some speculation the thinner slide of the 41 would be beat to death with a 10mm pounding it back. I would think a heavier recoil spring dialed in to your normal 10mm load would negate that though.

Any predictions on long term use of the 10mm in a G41?

I would be wary of trying that, just me. Convert a 21 to 10mm, sure. But a 41? I wouldn't try it. It just doesn't seem like a good idea.
Using a barrel with the same outside dimensions as a .45acp but with a bore for a 10mm means you will have thickers walls. The pressure difference is minimal, same barrel thickness as many other 10mm on the market, so what is the concern? The longer slide of the 41 has got to be close to the same weight as a G29, so then with the proper weight recoul spring, it should be a perfect fit right?

Or are you thinking of something I am missing? Why would it be a bad idea?

Anecdotal research shows the following for Glock Pistols. The G 41 is almost 2 ozs lighter.

G41..Gen 4 OEM sights 13.97 ozs
G40..MOS 4 OEM sights 20.80
G20..Gen 4 OEM sights 17.30
G29..Gen 4 OEM sights 15.60

The G41 10mm conversion barrel is a beefy *****. I have no worries of a kaboom on mine. Honestly I've been running the stock RSA with 10mm target ammo. I purchased the Jager oversized 4130 RSA with a Wolff 23lb spring, but haven't tried it yet since the slide speerd seams fine even with Nuclear Underwood loads. That might change when things loosen up, but for now I'm leaving the stock RSA in it.
