[QUOTE="JD8, post: 3425028, member: 24"] Yeah, you can read a LOT of things online. The early Colt Deltas had issues with their frames cracking. Then the later models had issues with unsupported barrels, a fairly common problem apparently. Kimber? You can read issues on them too. Be prepared to tweak any 10mm 1911 you get due to the loads you intend to use, and get some good aftermarket mags. Most "factory" mags are garbage. The RIAs are built surprisingly well for a ~$600 10mm. Dare I say just as good a Kimber in terms of frame to slide fit. Someone mentioned the Ruger, they are good guns. They aren't bad for the money and come with good features for the price, however each one I have picked up was pretty sloppy in fit. In which that may not matter, I've had more than a few "sloppy" 1911 that have shot really well. [/QUOTE]
