Gun Descriptions

Taking the classic .45 ACP, stainless steel 1911 and making it even greater—Dan Wesson created the Heritage. 25 LPI front strap and backstrap checkering give this handgun superior grip capacity while polished flats and cocobolo grips give it a classic touch. With a 5-inch barrel, bead-blasted slide finish, fiber optic front sight, and tactical rear sight, the Heritage is perfect for elevating your range experience.

The Valor returns with enhancements, including a Stan Chen SI magwell, tapered grip and tactical ambidextrous safety. The new slide stop is now recessed for laser grip applications. A serrated U-Notch rear sight and front tritium sight with a large orange ring allows for fast sight acquisition. The Stainless Steel version of the Valor receives a bead-blasted finish. The Valor now comes with an inverted rib, and an updated slide stop that allows for laser grip panels. Sitting atop the slide are a serrated U-notch rear sight and a front tritium with a large orange ring, while GI-style cocking serrations give it a classic look. Our new inset serrations not only knock down any glare from the top of the slide — they also look great!
