Is it possible to make a small single stack 10mm commander sized 1911. Does anybody

It is possible, and has been done, but they are often prone to malfunction due to abnormally strong slide velocity messing with extraction and ejection. The fast and strong rearward thrust can jar the case from the extractor, and the case may go where it is not supposed to, and not hit the ejector and be ejected. Some custom smiths have given up trying to make them work, and that is why they are not standard offerings, and not often seen.

You bet your ace it's possible, and it's a thing of beauty. It's called a 10mm Dan Wesson CBOB! I rarely shoot mine cause it's too purdy, but I've put 200 through it without any problems. The thing is a BEAST!

If you want a 2012 model, better look at having one built by Fusion. Don't know any manufacturers that offer a 10mm commander model in their main lineup for 2012.
 
I need to call again to see what options I can get in the 2012 model. See if it can be bought with adjustables, etc...

What brand are you talking about? If you go with a Fusion, you can design pretty much every single aspect of the gun. Just depends on how deep your wallet is.
 
The OP wanted a commander size. Think Kimber only offers 10mm in a full size frame.
 
Well that's the part I dont know. Several models were available but don't know which this year.
 
Got back recently from moving my company's servers to America from California, me to follow soon. But while in California, I could not buy a Dan Wesson CBOB in 10mm, so I had one made with similar characteristics.

Here's what it's made of:

- Springfield 1911 frame
- STI .400 Commander length slide
- Bar-Sto ramped barrel. Frame milled to fit
- Barrel bushing custom fit by Bar-Sto
- Ed Brown bobtail mainspring housing
- STI grip safety
- Cylinder & Slide Tactical Match 4.5 lb disconnector, sear and hammer
- Cylinder & Slide firing pin for 9mm, .40S&W
- STI trigger
- 10-8 Slide stop for 9mm
- EGW flat firing pin stop
- 24# recoil spring
- Dawson Precision full length guide rod and bushing. One piece stainless steel.
- Novak bar/dot night sights
- Ambi slide safety
- Larry Davidson Gyro-Spiral grip panels (sans 'Spiral')
- Tripp Cobra 9 rnd magazines

This configuration has been utterly reliable with hot, mid-2000 era Double Tap 10mm. And, I'm starting to see the bottom of the 1000 round Georgia Arms 10mm ammo can I bought.

So, yes, they can be made.
