Is a Colt Delta Elite in 10mm a "1911"...

[IndianaMatt]

or does it need to be in .45 cal in order to be in the "1911" category?

It is a 1911.

Personally I'm not that much of a purist, pretty much any caliber is ok with me.

Sarge, that is a beautiful gun. Mind if I ask what grips those are?

[bac1023]

Its certainly a 1911, just not one for me. ;)

[ArmoryDoc]

Thanks Grumpy. The grips are standard factory grips. I prefer the first gen. grips with the pebble texture but these work fine.

What do you find undesirable besides caliber, Brian ?

It's a 1911 to me, but to some purists it isn't, it's a "Government" model and some object to the series 80 firing pin safety system. Doesn't bother me.
