Gun Descriptions

Dan Wesson Specialist

The Dan Wesson lines of 1911 semi-automatic pistols from CZ-USA are among the finest examples of the iconic John Moses Browning design around. The Specialist is a full-sized 1911 with a 5" stainless steel match grade barrel, forged stainless steel slide, tactical ledge tritium sights, and a Clark-style serrated rib to reduce glare. It has an ambidextrous thumb safety and extended magazine release and a detachable 2-piece magwell. The pistol has a black nitride finish.

Dan Wesson Valor

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 â€” they also look great!
