Suggested retail 1019$ kimber and SIG's and Colt are better deals at lease in 10mm 1911s for that price. Ruger 1911 is not on there level yet but say u find one 799$ or less it starts to look like a good deal.
I'm thinking this would work to create some Ruger excitement. This is a Clements Custom Gunworks GP100 in 10mm, it sure fires me up View attachment 335109
Heck, I think RIA is already been making a 10mm 1911 for awhile, not really much to get excited about
got mt SR1911CMD a couple years ago ($525), it shoots as well as my Kimber STS.
when the prices begin to go down, i will have one in 10mm.
Ruger makes a good weapon, their CS top shelf.
I agree with that. IME, and I've been in the gun game many decades now, Ruger CS is right up there at the top. They'll do some amazing things: as an example, an acquaintance of mine decided to "EZ out" some scope mount filler screws from the receiver of a 10/22. Seems they were struck and he was boogering up the heads trying to remove them. Well...he punched an off-center hole in the aluminum receiver! A real Bubba job. Understandably pissed at himself, he sent the gun back to Ruger with a note saying "keep it or fix it, I don't care". Couple of weeks later he got a call from our LGS out of the blue..."come pick up your gun". Brand new 10/22, no charge. Ruger even paid the LGS service/transfer fee. Zero charge to the guy. I witnessed this little escapade myself. Amazing CS.
Hmm. Been thinking of 10mm's off and on for years. Another choice for when I finally pull the trigger on getting one! I just wish the VLTOR Bren Ten would have made it.
I've never been a big Ruger guy, but they always seem to "get it" and innovate unlike some other companies out there...and at a reasonable price also. This is on the heels of the 3" GP-100 in .44 Special. While I'm not going to be in-line to snag one of these new 10mms I do like receptiveness of Ruger.
Interesting. Our Rugers have done well. I prefer .45 as well, but maybe just one more in 10mm wouldn't hurt. I don't pay any attention to MSRP on anything. It's usually way off.
I’m sure I will take a long hard look at any Ruger in 10mm. I want to find out if it will handle full house loads. I have a few 10’s already but you can never have too many. I keep my fingers crossed that a newly minted 10mm revolver turns up soon from S&W or Ruger as well.

That's a legitimate concern and I'm familiar with the history of the first 1911 chambered for the 10mm, the Delta Elite. And it isn't as though a 1911 can't handle more powerful ammo considering how well the Clark 460 Rowland conversions work, although those are compensated guns and it isn't just a matter of using a heavier recoil spring.
I'd be curious to know what modifications Ruger made to the SR1911 to handle the higher pressure cartridge. Ruger generally over-engineers their guns and I doubt that they'd make these guns merely "adequate" for handling any kind of 10mm ammo.
That's a pretty gun and perfect for mag limit states. Well, almost.
