Decided that 10mm is way too cool of a cartridge not to have a platform for so I'm back in.

Just got my slide back from being refinished by James on the XD forum.  Gonna head out soon to run some rounds through her.  Wish me luck.

Lone Wolf slide and barrel, stock internals aside from the recoil guide rod and spring.

Ran 50 flawless rounds of Prvi 180gr JHP through her last night without any issues at all. I was very happy with it. Guy in the lane next to me kind of stole my thunder though because he was shooting his 50DE, I had caliber envy.
Anyways, just wanted to run some rounds through her to make sure I didn't get any failure to go into battery or ejection issues and none presented themselves.
Don't have access to a chrono so no joy on that. Ejection was good with my captured steel guide rod and 22# (IIRC, have to check) flat recoil spring. Close quarters but I believe I was getting a 1-2ft ejection pile of brass.
Going to try some hotter Underwood ammo next time but I think she's tweeked just right from the get go.

Tony, that pistol 'rocks'!  Looks like a pretty nice set-up you have there!  Welcome back to the 10mm club!

Nice looking pistol. The more I read on this forum the more I want a Glock. Now run some real ammo through it. The Privi stuff is loaded pretty mild. It's more on par with 40sw ammo.
Stay frosty!

Great setup there, Tony! Thing looks like it's ready to go hunting or just be awesome anyway. Order some Underwood for that and you will be amazed.

Actually it's an OD frame. Those colored Glock frames never show properly in pictures.
