      Hey. I’m moving to 10mm for a few non-political reasons.

      I’m an old school 1990s USPSA 1911 competitor.

      So I have a boring 9 as an EDC, and an equally inexpensive and boring “kit” of a 10mm pistol and carbine that live in my 4×4 (when in the woods).

      But I’m looking for something between my 9mm compact andmy Ronin.

      My main criteria are SHORT grips (like 1911 officer short) and LONG barrels. I used to build 4.25″ guns on Officer’s model lowers) until they were made commercially.

      What is the optimal blend of BBL (4.25 + threads (5″ threaded?) And clothing friendly “officer’s” size grip.

      Obviously I want more than 8 if I can get it, but I the end I need a long barrel and short grip.

      Ideas?

      Well you being a 1911 person you might want to check with Fusion Arms to see if Bob can make what you seek!

      Another option if you can stomach polymer is a Glock 29 with an aftermarket extended barrel.

      Or if you must have a slide around that barrel, grab a used Glock 20 and shorten the grip to G29 length. Guys do this to a G17 to get a CCO sized pistol. Done correctly you end up with a very factory looking gun.
