I came over after getting tired of all the crap on the “big forum”. Been a great place here for me.

Same here, usually when you venture from COTEP you'll get the crap, the 'tin foilers' and the one's who post crap just to get the 'easy ones' sucked in.

Power hath descended forth from Thy hand, that our feet may swiftly carry out Thy command.
So we shall flow a river forth to Thee, and teeming with souls shall it ever be.

Hey!! Wait a minute, are you accusing me of wearing a tin foil hat??
Dispensing crap is half the fun around here and I know when to poke the MIM-Monster and when to leave him alone. screwing with da and boy is fun. Besides, tinfoil makes my teeth hurt and I can't get the voices outta my head with that thing on..

At the time I came over from the big forum, in the first wave, I owned a DW Patriot Marksman Stainless. and Pig tell me I am one of the founding members but I don't have that neat Icon with my name. Since I came over I purchased a stainless CBOB from Bob, with a custom serial number since the advertised pistol was sold twice. I had fairly significant issues with the external extractor pistol that after some cuss fights, after Bob left, a few hundred dollars of fedex and exchanges of cash the mother ship finally broke down and fitted an internal extractor slide. Pistol runs great now. In fact it is on my hip now in an Alessi CQC/S Have added a couple other 1911s to the mix in the intervening years a high end Fusion Bobtail for my 50th, a Stainless Combat Commander that was a steal with a bad plunger tube stake job. Love my DWs right now. Just a rocky road to get here.

Let's see... my first 1911 was a 3" micro compact from Springfield Arms. Second was a Sig GSR . Both in 45. I was fascinated with the platform, which I hadn't fired since my military time. I went on the "big forum" and started asking questions.

I stumbled onto the DW forum there, and saw a number of people who had "COTEP" under their tag line. I contacted an old guy named "Doc" aka "", and the rest was history.

Now, the stable includes the original two, plus DW Patriot, DW CCO, a Guardian in 9mm (which my wife absconded with, but I do get to clean it) and a DW Guardian in 38 Super (shhhh... she still doesn't know about it. It looks exactly like hers, but its mine mine mine....)
