I don't have a 40, but i do have a 10mm 1911, which is quite similar, just higher powered. My buddy has a Ruger SR1911 in 45. We take them both out regularly and shoot them both. I was leary of getting a non-standard chambering (non 45acp) in the 1911, but after owning it for a while, i have no regrets at all. The only thing i would throw out there is when you stray from 45acp to 40/10, you can get +1 round in the magazine, but also magazines are harder to come by and more expensive. Also if you get the shorter pistols in 40/10, they tend to wear out the recoil springs faster. The recoil is quite a bit 'snappier' than the 45.
I like the 10mm a lot, but someday i will get a standard 45 too. There is no way i will be able to hold out forever on getting the old classic...
