The silence is deafening and should be indicative of the answer. But since you asked a direct question, I'll provide a direct answer...

No - I haven't received mine yet.

Signoir hasn't recieved his yet.

Here's my update for Tuesday, Nov. 10th: Five others have recieved theirs, now that I'm nearly at the end of this long rework process to get them up to snuff for delivery per our standards. Five have been shipped thus far, and all but two of the remaining 10mm's have now been reworked by me to correct oversights and fix little details and blemishes here and there. I'm testing those complete and accepted pistols again with Roy and will ship them early next week, probably all by Wednesday. Two slides and a frame that were marred a bit during previous work are still at our Super Black vendor and should be back any day. One remaining slide (a 5") that also required a second round of refinishing just came back today and should also be completed for next week's UPS.
As always you can call me at 541-468-3840 and email me at bruce@grayguns.com for details, but it's essentially going to be a moot point by next weekend for nearly every one of our remaining 10mm clients. Then I do hope to see some range reports here. So far we haven't had a single malfunction with any one of these that we've tested, using Blazer 200 grain stuff.
I'm pretty happy and relieved to be nearly done with this exhausting (and costly) but ultimately satisfying project.

Hey Bruce, these people have waited a long time and are antsy to get their guns! However, it is to your credit that you are not sending them out, until satisfied they are just right! " No malfunctions" is the best news possible; but nothing less would be expected from GGI.

The next and succeeding groups should be far less painless than this first group, benefitting from all the lessons learned!

When they have their guns,willing to bet all those customers will have a grin on their faces that even an undertaker couldn't remove? LOL

Bruce,

Thanks for the update. Please don't take anxious anticipation for impatience. I don't mind if mine is the last to ship out. I'd rather take comfort in knowing that I'll be satisfied whenever it arrives.

Not sure how many range reports we will see. I am told a lot of these guns will be safe queens and not be fired!

Mine is still holding up well - and shoots great!

Personally, I think that a 10mm in a 220 platform is the perfect utility pistol...be it for defense, duty, field companion, or sidearm complement to tactical long guns. I look forward to providing a range report.

I'm pretty sure that these guns will find range time.

Who else thinks that 220parts keeps posting a pic of his 10mm just to piss off those of us that haven't received ours yet? We get the point....You have yours and we don't!

220 Parts is a very good guy; but he might be just a touch sadistic by taunting us with those pics of his gun? LOL

I am not questioning 220parts integrity, honesty, "goodness", or any other personal quality. I am truly glad that he is enjoying his Sig 10mm. My point was that he has posted enough times in this thread, with pictures, that we all are well aware that he has been the proud owner of something that we have been and are still waiting for. I don't see any other reason for his abundance of posts (with pics) in this thread other than to flaunt the fact that he has what we have been waiting so long for.

Perhaps I have become a bit sensitive with this issue. If I have read 220parts intentions incorrectly, I apologize.......

Oh, I don't mind. And I certainly don't begrudge 220parts for being proud. Frankly, I think that he and GGI have put together a beautiful pistol and I never get tired of looking at it.

Sorry for the slightly off topic question but what happens to the original barrels and extractors? If I could make a deal for a set I think I could fix my P220ST. Of course it would still be cruddy ol' .45ACP. Razz

drvink, my comment was made in jest, which is why "LOL" at end, so readers would realize this. As long as you've waited,as have others, understand being a bit sensitive over his posting what he has that others do not. As I know him pretty well, believe I can attest to his not having any intent to "lord it over" anyone! Many pages ago, he did post targets from a range report. Yours and others long wait is apparently at nearly the end, according to Bruce, so we all are looking forward to hearing about the recipients guns!

I don't have mine yet. Heck since I am in batch #2, Bruce probably hasn't even been started on it yet. In the mean time, I'll enjoy the posts/pix/reports from 220Parts, or anybody else for that matter.

Fenris, while I can't speak for Bruce, bet the next batch takes much less time and goes smoother, as a result of lessons learned from batch 1?

Damn, I thought I was supposed to be in batch #2 after waiting for 2 years -- but no one has contacted me to send the gun!

I sneaked it into a shipment of other guns.

Still a bit like a proud parent... just wanted to let everyone interested in the 10mm know the reliability as been excellent, and the gun smithing superb. Looking forward to seeing many more of them.

220 parts, never doubted your motives for a minute and defended you a little ways back! That will be $20, please! LOL
