I had a Springfield Armory Mil-Spec in .45 ACP. It was a nice pistol but I got bored and sold it. I'd rather have a Commander Size 1911 in 10mm. Anyone know of who makes one?

Dan Wesson made a 10mm Commander.

Brown and Nighthawk will do one too.

Dan Wesson CBOB (Commander Bobtail) is no longer in production. All the CBOB's are selling for a pretty high premium, and a 10MM maybe even more so. If you can find one, buy it.

I'm another thats wishes we had more options for 10mm. I've got a few fullsize 1911 in 10mm but the only compact I have is the G29. Never thought I'd get one but I did. I must say, if you can get over the feel of shooting something that feels like a 2x4 block in your hand you'll probably be impressed. For a 3" barreled pistol the darn thing shoots as accurately as my full size 1911's.

Since this is a technical forum dedicated to 1911s I'll abstain from relaying my stance of the pros and cons of the Glock platform in 10mm, and point out that A full sized production10mm can be had new for $1,000 or less, which was a monumental stride from five or more years ago. One can still acquire a non production 10mm in a more compact platform by opting into a build (Caspian/Fusion) or a semi-custom. Granted this may be a prohibitively expensive deal to some, but considering that you can get a <$1,000 full size 1911, it hardly seems worth complaining about considering the fact one must be financially committed to firing such an expensive round in the first place.

I'm a GLOCK guy through and through..... but the Model 20 and 29 while they're appealing to me doesn't grab my attention as a commander size 10mm does. This is simply a show piece that I want.

Dan Wesson CBOB, discontinued but plenty still out there.  
Fusion will build one, with or without the bobtail.

The Dan Wesson CBOBs are awesome guns!  As already mentioned, these are unfortunately no longer in production.  If I was going to shop for another one I'd pick up a Fusion.  Fusion is run by Bob Serva who was responsible for bringing back the 10mm when he was in charge at DW.
