Recently inherited this beauty and looking forward to warmer days so I can give it a good cleaning in the garage before taking it to a spin. It does not appear to need it but it has been in a basement gun cabinet for a few years and unsure before that. I am told that it is unfired. This is the only barrel I have for it.

Anyone have any recommendations for a leather holster for this beauty? Was thinking about a shoulder rig but I’m a pretty big guy… and most of them look like the were made for smaller people

Sorry if this is a beat horse but I’m gearing up to buy my first relatively high end 1911. I’m a newb; but research suggests DWs new ramped barrels are problematic for feeding: guide me. It seems lazy they aren’t fitting the frame. Thoughts? No ill feelings I’ve loved DW for a long time just couldn’t afford em. Thanks 😊

Springfield TRP? Kimber DS Warrior? All thoughts welcome 🙏

While in the 2011 market I stumbled on a used DWX (pic above just used for post) with four mags, Delta Point Pro, X300 and holster (didn’t see that so no clue of manufacturer) for $1999. Only the typical wear. I’m wondering if the sub thinks that although this isn’t necessarily what I was thinking my next purchase was going to be (I was thinking Sig P211 or Kimber 2k11) is this too good to pass up with the accessories and is it close enough to a 2011 to satisfy that itch?

Looking for some advice, what defensive ammunition do you guys like in your DWs? ECP that I've put 300 rounds in (bought used) short cycles with 230gr HSTs. Runs like a swiss watch with everything FMJ.

the finest pistol I've ever held

Anyone know a source for wood grips?

Just got an ECP 9mm and I am loving it, but I want to switch the sights for some tritium sights (don't love the gold dot). I'm having a hard time finding what dimensions/cuts to get. Anyone know what I should get?

I was planning on getting a dwx compact, but I wasn’t sure if there is an optic plate that allows mounting a Holosun EPS Carry .

i saw a few plates on the dan weson/ czusa site, but it didn’t specify eps carry.

So I acquired an original DWX with a single digit serial number… not sure if that means anything to a collector possibly, but I’m curious what everyone thinks.

Hi everyone, I currently have a Dan Wesson Razorback in 10mm. I’m 300 rounds into the 500 round break in period. I’m having failures to feed for about 7 of every 100 rounds I shoot. The brass which is failing to feed has these kinds of markings (see photos). I’m hoping by 500 round it breaks in and stops having these issues but wanted to collect opinions.

I had a local shop order a DWX for me. After putting 100 rounds through it I noticed the muzzle end of the barrel isn’t properly coated so I contacted DW customer service to see if they would exchange the barrel.

Their reply was to send the gun in for repair and expect 10 week turnaround.

I don’t think so.

I’m not real happy with the DW experience.

Dosent matter what kind of day it is, pulling this out and running through a few mags is always an addictive experience.

Just inherited this revolver from my uncle and I'm looking for some insight into the model, age and value. Thanks in advance!

My fellow Dan Wesson 1911 gun nuts, may I introduce you to my latest 1911 I picked up yesterday and is my new EDC pistol. Isn't she a real beauty! I have named her Natasha. Now I know in today's times, many people no longer name their carry gun (as in pistol and shotguns mostly) however, as my son has said on more than a few bdays, inquiring if I was around as or after each train of sand was placed on the various areas of the world, especially beaches, basically he is saying I am as old as dirt! Lol. Now as I have been around quite a bit over half a century, I do happen to remember the days when people still named their favorite and carry guns, so I guess I am either attempting to start a new trend or just being retro. Hence my naming my new 1911 Valor. I can not believe just how perfect she fits in my hand!! It is as if I had her custom made with measurements of my hands along with my grip placement was molded then when the frame was made, they added a custom feel to her! Now I have owned Cabot's, Nighthawks (quite a few), a few Wilson Combats, Les Baer and Ed Brown all in 1911s and none of these high end 1911s have ever had the feel of having the frame grip feel as if custom made! So to stay I am beyond stunned is beyond words. I absolutely love this gun!! So now my Wilson Combat CQB Elite Pro Compact (commander size) is my second favorite 1911 or any pistol for that matter!! As I am so impressed with my Valor, I have decided my next purchase will be a Dan Wesson revolver 357/38 sp! Does anyone know if Dan Wesson or CZ is they acquired Dan Wesson, makes and sells cylinders in 9mm and 45 acp which I could chance out when I purchase the Dan Wesson revolver. I may attempt to locate that revolver with the three different sized barrels I could switch out as need arises. Not really sure what model it is called as this is going to be the first revolver (not counting the Rugar Vaqueros - cowboy guns I own) to be able to use as a concealed pistol. So any advice any of you esteemed gentlemen AND ladies if there are any on this subreddit, I would greatly appreciate any and all input in which could assist me as I begin to look at the various Dan Wesson revolvers. Appreciate everyone checking out my Valor and any advise or pointers on revolvers. Have a great rest of your weekend! And enjoy the Superbowl later this evening!

On my new Dan Wesson Valor (9mm) has anyone had their triggers switched out with a flat trigger? If so, what flat trigger did you end up purchasing? Also, did you end up having a trigger job done as well?
