Colt Delta Elite- Want to shoot
I've been interested in a Colt Delta Elite for a while now and am wanting to get some hands on before spending the $ on it. If there is anyone willing to let me burn a few mags through theirs (I'll provide NIB ammo) please let me know. I can compensate for your time with a box of ammo or buy you lunch etc. Let me know if you're interested through PM. Thank you!

I WISH I had one to let you try out, because I've always wanted one, but all I've ever been able to afford was a Glock 20 which is a whole 'nuther thing altogether and doesn't have even a fraction of the "Cool" factor.
Wikipedia has some good info on the gun, however.

I think double eagle in deer park has one used that might save you some coin...

Re: Colt Delta Elite- Want to shoot
I know double eagle on Francis had one as of yesterday, don't know if it was used or not..
Not really helping your "want to shoot", but thought I'd mention it

Re: Colt Delta Elite- Want to shoot
I actually sold my delta because it was not the gun my other two 10's are. Stock vs stock it beats them...but with the addition of a fps, spring and ejector work it gets beat by the RIA. The colt was hell on brass and the smiles it left were scary.
You can make a colt hang, but at that point.....is it still a colt? Not a question I wanted to answer. If you shoot 40s&w velocity stuff.....it's flawless. Feed it 200's over 1100ish and you'll be scared to do so with a full mag.
