    I'm interested to see what you guys came up with. I just picked up my 10mm commander bobtail from Allen last week. Very tight and accurate. Mine was probably a boring build for Allen, but I really like it. Very clean and simple. I would post pics, but don't know how now that Photobucket sucks.

    OK. The initial plans are laid down. New we get some parts coming our way.
    I am excited.

    He posted a pic of that I believe. I asked him how much...:):

    I picked up a Gen 4 G20 last month and yesterday, I picked up a set of Dillon 10mm dies. I've been reloading 10mm for years but have been sharing dies with my .40 setup and have not reloaded 10mm as much as I like because of the PITA it is to adjust dies. I hate screwing with a nicely set up 550 tool head so I now have a dedicated 10mm toolhead that lets me run 10mm any time I want without messing my .40 settings up. :):

    The thing that sucks is that my old setup was enough of a PITA to run 10mm that I rarely ran it. And that meant that I rarely ran the guns. And, since I rarely ran them, I sold my G29, then my G20 and finally the Witness until all I had left was the custom DE. I just replaced the G20 and will probably replace the Witness eventually. Either that or I'll explore some other 10mm pistols that I had not before. Sig and Ruger come to mind.

    I have dies/ tool head for 10 and 40. It definitely makes it nice having both set ups. Then you just have to change primer tubes, which ain't too bad.

    Here is my contribution.



    Grip work was done by 5B Gunworks in Texas. I can't believe I spent that much and waited as long as I did (9 months) but it really did make a world of difference.

    The funny part is I had to pay half up front (March), received the request to send it in 12/12 and got it back 12/20.

    Edit for clarity:

    I placed the order and sent in the first half of what was owed in March of '17. I didn't have to send the frame in until requested, which was 12/12. Then it only took 8 days to receive it back in the mail. I thought it was kind of silly but it was nice that:

    A. I wasn't without the pistol for nine months
    B. It took less than 10 days to get it turned around.

    I have a G29 I'm thinking of doing but I'm really not sure it's worth it for something I rarely carry.
