No, no 10mm CCO.

The commanders have arrived! They look great! The 10mms are my favorite. Just shipped one out to a COTEP member today.

Got mine today, it came at the same time the DoubleTap .45 arrived. I'm going to soak my hand overnight, have a chiropractor on standby and try to shoot the little rascal before the 10mm. My concern is that if I fire the 10mm first I won't be able to hold the DoubleTap. I'm told it kicks like a mule.

I'm impressed with the Commander size 10mm with the VZ grips. I stripped it of oil, cleaned it carefully and froglubed the whole thing. The trigger is very decent, the slide does not rattle at all, nice and tight and the package is impressive.

Standby for range report.

I got a chance to shoot the Mid Size 10MM at Academi in Moyock, North Carolina last month and it really does not "kick" that bad!! I probably ran 2 or 3 magazines through it as well as the TCM 22, XT 22 LR and 22 Magnum, the new 380 and the 9MM.

Not worried about the 10mm, I'm sweatin' the DoubleTap after looking at videos. I do have some 10mm 1600 fps underwood 135 grain rounds that might get a little hot.

Glad you got your gun Shark. Looking forward to the range report. I gave it a looking over before sending it out.
