The Ultimate 10: Kase Reeder made custom 10mm 1911
Mike emailed me photos of the latest addition to his collection …
It’s a Kase Reeder made custom 10mm 1911 he has called, The Ultimate 10. According to Kase it is the newest full custom 10mm and the only longslide custom 10mm on the U.S. market. It has a custom Caspian stainless flattop 6″ long slide with Bomar adjustable rear sight and Bomar front sight. It has a custom stainless Fusion Firearms Tact-5 frame with accessory rail, Ed Brown NM trigger, memory groove beavertail, Chip McCormick extended safety, and mag catch. It also has special custom Italian grips, a full action job with custom internals, a checkered mainspring housing and custom mag well. The barrel is a Clark custom ramped 6″ with national match bushing. Each gun is custom made to the customer’s specs. It isn’t cheap though. I think mine was $2995.00 without taxes.
Sadly my meager gun budget won’t stretch this far!
I founded TFB in 2007 and over 10 years worked tirelessly, with the help of my team, to build it up into the largest gun blog online. I retired as Editor in Chief in 2017. During my decade at TFB I was fortunate to work with the most amazing talented writers and genuinely good people!

ap: Well, when you consider that you can duplicate the subsonic loading for that new .300 Black round in a 10mm (220 grains @ 1050 fbs), yeah, giving the 10mm added barrel length is a pretty sensical idea. I've heard that HK gives the 10mm version of the MP5 a maximum effective range of 250-275 meters; no idea how true that actually is, but if it is true, that's more or less the same effective range as an M4 carbine in 5.56 NATO.
That is the most badass 10auto ive EVER SEEN!! I really want an automatic .410/.45colt. (yes i know it is absolutely rediculous and unrealistic, but still.
