I remember when the Colt Delta Elites came out. One of my shooting buddies got one, and he still loves it. This may all be urban legend, but the story I heard was the 10mm was developed for the FBI as a more powerful cartridge following a shootout in Miami with bank robbers who out gunned the FBI with Mini-14s and such. But the ladies coming into law enforcement couldn't pull the slide back on the new pistol. The FBI went to the 45 acp. S&W tuned down the 10mm and it became the 40 S&W, which is now a most popular cartridge with law enforcement. Is that all about right? It could all be lies for all I know. I don't believe anything shooters say when they've been drinking. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />
