New Family Member, Dan Wesson 2013 Valor Stainless
 
Just acquired this last Friday. I got it from Kenneth in Florida. He has plenty if anyone wants any. He has Duty Treated ones, CCO, ECO, etc.
If anyone wants to order from Him. I'll give you his phone #
I haven't got to shoot Her yet, but the fit, finish, etc are Superb!
Note, seems Dan Wesson is now putting the same sights the Specialist Uses on the Valor Line!
The Range I go to is closed due to Obama being a big baby!

Nice looking gun. Sights look like Heinie Straight Eights. That's what are on my Vbob.

dw1911 10-13-2013 10:26 AM

By the way, the trigger on this baby is NICE! About 3-1/2 to 3-3/4 lbs & CRISP! :D

They are, but note the pyramid shape. ALL My other Valors have the rectangular shape. This is NEW.

Here's a picture of Specialist Sights . See what I am saying?

I concur.

dw1911 10-13-2013 04:21 PM

Thanks Guys! If it shoots like all the other Valors, it'll be a tack driver :D
It racks like it's on ball bearings! They have really upped their game since the fire! I guess they got all NEW CNC Machines, etc.

Just looked at mine and they're rectangular. Still a good looking gun.

milkmanjoe 10-14-2013 03:13 PM

Life is good...beautiful pistola!!! I'm tempted to smash the piggybank and grab one.....need a special date to blame for the explanation.

VBOB83 10-18-2013 09:02 PM

Sweet piece. Just picked up my second V-Bob the other week, got the SS Vbob because the Black one was lonely.

dw1911 10-18-2013 09:15 PM

I understand, really I do.

I purchased the Stainless V-Bob this past August, I stumbled onto the Duty Treated V-Bob beauty last month. Boy, am I happy. I have yet to run any rounds down the Black Beauty's pipe. I'm sure it will be as satisfying as its Steely twin. The Black V-Bob was my seventh M1911.

Where will it end? Where will it end?

What am I saying??? Who the hell wants it to end?

So many makers, so little time...

Have a great weekend everyone!
