History
The Bren Ten prototype was built in 1980, around the .45 ACP cartridge. At that time, it was called the "CSP80", for Combat Service Pistol (19)80. The 10mm cartridge was developed at the behest of Jeff Cooper, and the CSP was redesigned to accommodate the new cartridge. Though the gun's designers Dornaus & Dixon didn't initially like it, they adopted Cooper's idea of "Bren Ten" for the new gun. A variant of the Bren Ten was made/sold in .45 ACP chambering.

NOTE: Crockett's interim gun, while functionally a SIG Sauer P220, was a Browning BDA. Browning imported these guns in several calibers, along with other pistols (including a .380) under the BDA brand.
