I've owned a Delta Elite, and nowadays have a Glock model 20. I believe that the Glock soaks up recoil better in 10mm than the 1911 design, but neither has ever been unpleasant to shoot.

My main reason for having a 10mm handgun is for carry in places with predatory animals bigger than humans. Gotta say I feel better armed with the 15 +1 rounds a Model 20 carries. Also feel less anxious about bumping around the woods with a super tough tenifer finish instead of bluing or even shiny stainless.

Also, the Glock will likely handle a lot more rounds of hot ammo than a Delta would without issues but that's a moot point to me.
