mfw I have an early production, blued Delta Elite with extra Wilson magazines. Just like the pic.

However, .40 Short and Weak was designed for small men, and women in LE. It's 10mm shortened and weakened.

OG blued Delta is one of my grail guns

Probably gonna pick up the 2016 models to break up and cannibalize with an 80% reciver.that way I can do a ramped frame/FS barrel on the Delta slide and use the frame for milder shit. Or a 7.62x25

Also .38-40 was a thing in JMBs day. Idk about him making a .40, but the 1911 definitely wouldn't have been a .45 if that weren't in the requests

> the 1911 should have been chambered in a clown caliber created 80 years after its adoption

now if you mean 10mm as your picture suggests, I'm not against that at all, but at the time of army trials, the military demanded not less than .45 in response to some .38 cal round doing poorly against savages
