I am a big Smith fan as well but how come I see no Deltas in that group 
O.K. So, how is the Witness - range report! Trigger, recoil, ergos, accuracy, etc... I have looked at them, just never seriously considered one.
Colt Delta Elite, check. Glock 29, check. Wore out a S&W back in the day, check. (Someone could have used it as a baby rattle I guess... wait, maybe someone is!)

Really nice guns and collections guys...
I've had several 10mm pistols in my 30 year history, including a early Glock (too large a grip for me), a Colt Delta, and a couple of early S&W 1006's, one with fixed and the other adjustable sights. As many of us have bought, sold, traded away our treasures, so did I, and am now left with the last 10mm I ever bought. It's a SA OMEGA, 6" ported polygonal barrel, adjustable target sights, and honestly I really like it.
I know there has been several reports of issues with the OMEGA, but from what I've experienced (my own and a friends OMEGA) and heard directly from SA was that they updated (last few production runs) OMEGA's had improved/upgraded recoil rods in the area that was prone to breakage. Also that had a lot to do with Norma full house loads and hot hand loads.
This OMEGA of mine below was shipped from SA in one of the last two shipments before they quit making them. It was a legal/patent issue between Peters Stahl and S/A that halted production. Supposedly mine (so I was told anyway) has all the bugs worked out that plagued earlier models/versions. It's been very reliable, durable, and more accurate than any out of the box and modified pistols I have ever owned. I do worry about the lack of parts should something happen, but I remain hopeful that it will continue to serve me well. Plus I have an excellent pistol smith friend!
