I stand corrected, Thank you for the info.

No problem I just wanted to make sure the info was correct as soon as I saw it. Plus as I mentioned 10mm is my favorite round... Would love to see this done in 10mm
 
Are you talking about STI magazines in particular, or magazines in general. Not sure I ever saw a spacer in the back of a STI magazine, but like I said previously, it's been a decade so my data is definitely not current. :)

EDIT: To continue this, we should start another thread so we quit stepping on Bill's.
 
I think you could do a rail in 10mm. Let me get this one done and see then.

Well I don't have any Sti mags I currently have a cz75 in 10mm and a 1911 single stack in 10mm and I have seen both in 40 and both have a ridge or spacer in the back of the mag to move the round a little forward if it's a 40 where the 10mm does not have the it.
 
Nope mine 100% custom built. Its currently out getting satin Nickel plated... A friend ( lisc. FFL is doing it for me for nothing) let's just say this is no where near your common 1911... Not in looks anyway... And pretty much every part is one off... Other than the FCG

10mm works in a single stack 1911, but is near the limits of the pistol's ability to extract/eject/strip/feed. I'm not sure the STI mags are deep enough front to back. Many years ago I was the first person to show up at a USPSA sectional with a high-capacity, unlimited pistol (Rob Leatham was still blowing up 9mms trying to make major...) based on the early aluminum para-ordnance frame. Only available in .45 at the time, (.40 S&W didn't exist yet) I couldn't get 10mm to fit in the mags, so I trimmed all of my 10mm brass to centimeter and shot the match with a wildcat. :) Managed to beat Rob, a paid professional at that time, on two stages. The word got out fast. Once the steel para frames became available, they started popping up at matches all over the place. Then Rob discovered .38 Super and the Open Class started getting real expensive after that.

We are now at some sort of standardization on the prints. The are done in ink now and ready for Billh50 to put them in CAD format.

Billy G,
Anytime after this weekend will be fine to get together. Will only be busy on Tuesday (testing done then ). Also if you can scan the 81/2 x 11's and send them I can start on those right away first.
