Justin, that scope outweighs the gun.
Dan Wesson was the 10mm I was checkin out.

If it's a revolver S&W is my #1 choice by far. Ruger after that. I don't think many will argue w/. that; we won't even get into the semi-autos, cause everyone will be split to some extent.

It hits though! lol. It's just for fun. I'm debating taking it off and putting the iron sights back on it. It's neat though.

Yeah, those Dan Wesson 1911s are expensive!!!!

Dan Wesson is owned by CZ now. My revolver was made before that. It should be worth anywhere from $700-900.

The Dan Wesson was a 10mm, u saw that, right? But at $1k, I might be off say $2-400 give or take, since I looked at a lot of handguns bout a month ago. When I saw $33/ bx of 20 for .45 for ~$18, I kinda grew less interested in a 10mm, fast.

I'd rather get another Kimber or more than likely, a defense shotgun. I've seen Mossberg 500's before in many variations, a.w.a. various 870's. The 870 I liked had ghost ring sight, nice short barrrel very close to a riot stock, but w/o the need to register as a pistol like the riot stocks.

Yeah, I think they make their 1911 clones in all sorts of calibers. I know they make 9mm versions.

10mm is expensive to own and shoot but a good bit more powerful than 9mm from what I'm reading.

Unless it's not a 1911 clone then I'm am unaware. DW is owned by CZ so might as well get a CZ then. Maybe spend a little less money. Maybe... lol

edit: Yowzers!!! Here is a DW 10mm 1911.

My bad, I didn't realize 1911 carried over to many calibers. CZ-1O rings a bell; IDK the other 1 I saw at the gunshop. Good luck finding em. I noticed on that CZ link u sent, many Dan Wesson models are goin bye-bye. CZ-10 is on that list, as was other I saw. But the guy at shop told me that.

ordering a rock island armory 1911 tactical or G.I., might just want to build on the G.I. And keep it cheap. But for home defense and rec. shooting I got an M1 carbine. Would like to get some 30rd mags but... California sucks

if you buy the fake 30 round mags that only hold 10 rounds all you have to do it take out the pin and it turns into a 30 round
