I own a .45 specialist commander in stainless finish and its the best gun i own. I carry it everyday. Its literally the only gun i own in which i needed to do nothing! No upgraded sights, no extended mag release, no replacement grips.. nothing. Its an amazing 1911

The slide work is known in the industry as a Jim Clark style sight rib which is basically almost the same as the Colt Gold Cup slide profile.

All the small control parts on DW 1911's are supplied by EGW. They are blued carbon steel parts on the Black Duty finish guns and WILL rust if you don't keep oil on those parts. Mine started to rust just being in the safe............ never have taken it outside. Yes I wipe it down most of the time after handling it and it still rusted. The Black Duty coating is great but don't use any chlorinated cleaners on it as those can turn it grayish. I'm told (and I use) Kroil Oil on that finish and it really keeps it looking great and very black. I wish DW had put that coating on the small parts. The two piece mag well on the Specialist is an Ed Brown part and must be LokTited to stay in place. My DW single action trigger pull when new was a crisp 3 lbs.-9oz. with very little over travel and a typical 1911 reset. OEM initial static trigger spring pressure is a heavy 1 lbs.-15oz. which is high for a typical 1911. DW errors on the safe side of things and over does the static spring pressure IMHO.

If you could only have one.. This would probably be my pick. Well put together and they're are no MIM parts. Spending more money..i think you're losing for "art work"... Serrations style, RDS Mount... Different grips.. Band brand name... The ability to ask for certain options.. As with a Wilson

This is all the gun any of its realistically needs. 1911s from companies like a Wilson Combat.. Aren't making guns that much better.. They just offer occupying to make the gun tailored to our wants... What could any company do to drastically improve on the engineering of a191? Not like sweeping engines and suspensions in a sportscar.... Where the differences ARE night day What bugs me to this day about DW is their refusal to put their company DW logo on the funds and something in the right side of the slide. Like a Springfield's Armory 199, Cooler, Wilson...

How long have you had your Dan Wesson? Any rust issues? How is it as of Jan 2021? Still no rust issues. KZitemrs like Beretta1911USA has mentioned rust spots on their collection of DW 1911's on the hammer. Doesn't happen to all DW 1911 owners.

There are called 'Checkering Points'. DW checkers the front strap at 25LPI and the Ed Brown rear main spring housing is 20LPI and is nicely sharp.

I see you have the 'snap on' surefire on there. Any issues with it being shaken loose? I hear some people preferring the screw on as 45 will kick a bit too hard. Love the review, played a big part in my decision to try and go for a Specialist. Which will be my first privately owned gun, btw. 😁

Throw that Wilson mag in the recycle bin. Wilson has lost a lot of quality since his kid took over the helm. I have had bad luck with Wilson, their products, customer support and workmanship. I would rather have that Dan Wesson then a Wilson gun any day. Actually. I do have two Dan Wesson's a Specialist and a Guardian hand fitted from the factory. Thanks for posting, enjoy your pistol (your audio volume seemed low).

Wilson Combat or Chip McCormick. McCormick is the OEM for Wilson. Mec-Gar magazines are decent. You wont got wrong with the above. Any 1911 I own that didnt come from the shop with either Wilson or McCormick magazines saw me toss the factory mags and replace them with the above.
