Il CattivoGuinness58, you might give Gray Guns a call. My understanding is that they're now doing them as ordered, rather than on a batch basis.

Whoever it is they have padded a little profit. There is only $1502 of work and he wants $2700. The 220 originally cost $1198? Me thinks not.

The original guns took over a year, which you can pay someone else for, or wait it out yourself. And no, I still have mine. And you can't buy it for what I have in it, or anything close.

Not mine, either - there's no way I'm selling mine.
You have to also figure shipping out to GGI and back and possibly a transfer fee, depending on how the pistol was originally bought. That's anywhere from $50-$100.

Mitch_Rapp.45Anyone know what the current wait time and price is for one of these? I have been watching from afar and am really close to going for it.

drvinkI believe that only Bruce would hold the answer to that one. You should contact Bruce Gray.

DakorW/o reading the entire & very long thread, how well are the pistols holding up? What's the highest round count that's been tested?

UndaCovaBrotherAlthough I wasn't one of these "Beta Testers" who got one of the GGI custom Sig 220 pistols, I do feel as if I was a part of something great. Told some family members about them and showed them photos and they all loved what they saw. Bruce I think you may be getting a new customer or two sometime in the future!

So far, mine is impeccable. Reliable, accurate, very confidence-inspiring. I haven't torture-tested it or anything. Just put the 500 rounds downrange that I would for any carry pistol before carrying it, and now 50 rounds or so a month to keep it familiar.

cumminsfanSince its been a while since I read the whole thread a few details are a wee bit fuzzy...
If I recall corectly the 220 Sport couldnt be used for this because the factory barrel had a larger OD .... would it be possible to either freeze fit or silver solder a sleeve onto the Bar-Sto barrel (provided the barrel an be ordered longer to work with the Comp) and then turn it down to match the slide?
Will any other 220 slide work on the Sport??
The reason I ask is I have a Sport w/ Comp that I'd love to have this done to, BUT I'd like to find a second slide for it to make it a multi caliber gun.
so am I nuts or is this just another one of my wild-assed ideas?

GraygunsHiya! Thought I'd pop in here and and wish everyone a Happy New Year. I know we're looking for 2011 to bring great things.
We expect one of those great things to be another run or two of 10mm custom works. First, Daddy-O here must finish his extensive backlog of various high-grade 1911 builds and Long Slide Comp P7's while we all complete the reorganization and expansion we've been working on for a few months now. (FYI, GGI now has seven of us working here in the Volcano Base, and we've just launched OpSpec Training as a new, separate company.) It'll happen, and we'll be calling folks on our 10mm Wait List when we're ready. With my gratitude for everyone's patience and faith in this worthy project, I'll keep you informed.
In the meantime, I hope our 10mm clients will post here with their results and issues so we can be sure the next 10's are everything they can be within what the stainless P220 platform permits.
Please do read through these posts, and look at my more recent comments regarding what subsequent 10mm's will be like. Thanks again!

v2riderwow, 2k for a 10mm. The poly frame on my glock SF10mm holds up just fine for 600 bucks.
Nice project though. If there was a 10mm XD or Sig for 5=700 bucks I would be all over it, but right now I have to stay with a 20 and 29sf Glock.

jeremiahjjHave you been to a gun store and checked Kimber prices recently? How about a Wilson 1911? $2000 for a handmade 10mm is not a bad price. More to the point, you can't walk into a gun store and buy a 10mm Sig either. For two big ones, you get the best of both worlds: a Sig and a 10mm.

v2riderI was just sayin, they SHOULD as Springfield SHOULD be able to make a Polymer framed 10mm, Glock did it and its flawless and doesnt run a 2k bill. And hey, its a Glock

Ordnance OutsellColt resumed making 10mm Delta Elite for about $1k. Ones sold in 2010 were very nice guns, as other Colt 1911's have been the last few years!
