Very nice looking pistol. Thank you for sharing. I hope that you are feeling better!
Thanks my friend, I am slowly getting better, Thank-you. 🤗🥳😎👊👍🇺🇸
Beretta Sr.
Beautiful gun. Thanks for posting.
Well, I’m glad that you’ve found what you like but for my money, I’ll hang on to my $1600 Dan Wesson two-tone V-Bob. The $700 difference allowed me to buy several Wilson Combat magazines and ammunition. The custom models do provide better finer details, smoother corners, less sharp edges, etc., but that’s not the most important for me. Fortunately, the Dan Wesson shoots well and offers a great value for the amount of money it will cost you. Enjoy the range and the start of a new collection.
Nice they put a finish on the hammer so it won’t rust
Hope your feeling better Beretta Sr. Glad you guys are getting new reviews out! Been doing some trading (like you have been doing) and picked up a Nighthawk T3 .45 today.
Right On! I Really Enjoy my 1st. Nighthawk a Thunder Ranch Special. Be Careful The Nighthawks are just like Les Baers but just a little nicer in smooothness and the Finish is a tab better too. I am gonna influence you into buying a new Les Baer in 2020 or 2021. :) 🤔👊🤗🥳😎👍🇺🇸
Beretta Sr. :)
I've got my eye on the Les Baer Gunsite 1911...www.lesbaer.com/Gunsite.html
LeClaire, IA is about 6.5 hours from where I live.
Ordered my Les Baer Gunsite today.
Sean Hadley Wow Congratulations..... it should be allot like my Thunder Ranch 1st Gen that I bought used. I have to tell you that Les Baer was a freaking treat to take to the Range and I cleaned it up a bit before our Range Day, it looked very lightly used (Almost New) after the Clean up and Range Day. The dang thing looked terrific even if it was 8 years old. Yours should be almost twice as good, and New of course. I am very Happy For You!!!! These Top Of The Line 1911’s by Les Baer give Young Beretta and I allot of Pleasure in our everyday lives. We talk Guns all the time and 2 or 3 Les Baers come out at our house every 3 or 4 days for a couple hours as we pass them around and check them out. My Current EDC is a Full-Size Dan Wesson Vigil and that 6 month EDC is up on June 30th, 2020....... I am thinking very Seriously about switching to one of my Les Baer 1911’s as my main Gun off duty. Congratulations on YOUR NEW LES BAER!!!!!! I think you will be very pleased..... and I hope we can talk about them in the comment section for the next 2 Years!! :) Cheers! 😎👍🇺🇸🥳
Beretta Sr.
Whats better Willson mags or cobra mags
Both are Awesome!
Great choice guys 😎
The Marshall Gun Channel Hey there Sir. I knew allot of folks will understand what we are getting at, and at the same time I want to be very Respectful to the Dan Wesson 1911’s that I still own and that I have recommended so much over the last 3 years. There comes a time when as a Reviewer and as a Firearm aficionado, you have to make the decision to move on to what may be even better. I think I am at that Point in life here. We will have a good time in 2020 and 2021 reviewing Les Baer 1911’s. A nighthawk 1911 or two, and maybe, finally, a Wilson combat 1911 or two. Time will tell and be the Judge as my gun budget is not big enough for all of that in the Next 2 Years. LOL! Stay Safe my friend. 🥳🤗😎👍🇺🇸
Beretta Sr.
BERETTA9mmUSA I think the same way ! When you go up in levels of quality , it’s hard to go back 😜
OH MY GOD!!! Your new Les Baer is gorgeous!!!! Congratulations!!!
He used every dollar he had and put Trumps Tax Return to work too, with my encouragement of course. :) I told him money well spent. :) 👊🤗🥳😎👍🇺🇸
Beretta Sr.
BERETTA9mmUSA, that’s great!! I used the money to pick up e 629 Stealth Hunter!! 😁
Bullseye Tactical That is AWESOME!!!!! 🤗🥳😎👍🇺🇸
What don't you recommend Dan wesson? I've been saving money for a DW .
Why does the u-tube video say not recommended? I love Dan Wessons!
Watch our latest video just published 20 mins ago. (Dan Wesson 9mm 1911 review)
Just took possession of my specialist commander duty coat. I love the fit and finish. I couldnt decide between a 5" or commander I went with the commander. It was watching your reviews that helped me decide. Thanks Berettas!!!
Christopher M. Hold on to that..... they are hard to find these days. Congratulations! They still make a Great 1911 and I still own 7 or 8 of them. 🥳😎👍🇺🇸...... :) Beretta Sr.
Hey thanks for the reply! I've noticed that the 2020 specialist has some changes that I didn't care for - Rail is different, front slide serrations, slide stop is standard. Found mine on Gunbroker for $1600 new and couldn't pass it up. If it shoots like your distressed commander I'm a happy camper! 😎🤘🇺🇸
Christopher M. I am sure it will be Great! All the Dan Wesson’s I have owned, they have been very consistently Fantastic. Enjoy it. Beretta Sr.
@@BERETTA9mmUSA I sure will:) Thank you sir!!
Hi. I was wondering after watching the review and seeing how you said the head shots hit the neck. I also have two specialists one in 9mm and one in 45. They also shoot low. Is that your experience with the specialists your have shot ? Thanks again. Love the reviews
Yes a little bit.... not a bunch. I always attributed it to me and not the Dan Wesson pistol. Beretta Sr.
Thanks
I own one, and to me it shoots low....kinda surprised and not real happy about it.....I expected more.
Nice holster
Your the only video so far,
So that is not a full size 1911,
How long is the barrel?
It’s a Commander 1911, it has a 4.25 inch barrel. - B9USA
I C ok thanks.
I believe that it will look plenty distressed the longer you carry it. I know some of mine look like I found them on Omaha Beach.
This distressed Dan Wesson is alot more affordable than the distressed Wreath.
I have to agree, when you're talking close to 2k MSRP, there are better options. However, under $1500, Dan Wesson is hard to beat for quality!
The thing is only 3 or 4 of their 1911’s are under $1,500 these days. Then if you saved that much or you can spend $500 or $600 you can own a Les Baer. Just personal preference and I am not sorry that I started out with 7 Dan Wesson’s because they hold their value pretty good indeed. 🤔👊🤗🥳😎👍🇺🇸
Beretta Sr.
@@BERETTA9mmUSA I'm really glad that you're doing well and the hospital stay was brief. As someone who suffers from inner ear infections often, I understand how they can mess with balance.
I'm looking forward to your and YB's upcoming content!
Fyi i do not like distressed finishes on any gun. It costs a premium. If you want a distressed finish on your gun just carry the fuckin thing
True...... very true. It’s just like the torn up jeans the stupid Kids buy these days.
Beretta Sr. :) 🤔👊🤗🥳😎👍🇺🇸
@@BERETTA9mmUSA hope you're feeling better senior
any idea how this shoots compared to a trp operator?
You can’t beat a les Baer !!!!
So True!!! The End of The Video Kinda Blows Away The Dan Wesson, after a Great Positive Review Of That Dan Wesson. Somebody Stole the show!!
Beretta Sr. 🤔🤗🥳👊🥳😎👍🇺🇸
why do some Specialist models have front cocking serrations and some don't??
Gen 1 vs Gen 2 difference
@@BERETTA9mmUSA thanks for the reply. I like the serrations personally
You can't beat a Dan. This one is talking to me. Fitment looks like it is so nice.
Yes these seem to be very nice and not very plentiful out there. Which makes a very nice 1911 Commander even better.
Beretta Sr.
Would the Specialist be able to handle 45 super?
I would not go to hot and heavy, other then that I would call Dan Wesson Customer Service for a 💯% correct answer. I do not want you to blow it up. I own 7 Dan Wesson 1911s and I love them to much to damage them. :)
😎🥳👍🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸. Beretta Sr.
I have a commander in 45acp stainless that is in my edc rotation, picked it up for a steal $1250 brand new. No rust issues on hammer, and still love that gun. Wont ever trade or sell it. If i get anothet 1911, it will be something absurd. Wilson or nighthawk, you will have your work cut out for you to convince me on les baer. I'd rather just save for the best once i get close to 2k+ for a 1911
What 1911 is it.... Dan Wesson??
@@BERETTA9mmUSA specialist
I recently got rid of my HK45, USP 45, and USP9 Tactical all fine pistols but the plastic double action trigger and EXPENSIVE magazines eventually moved me off of the series of pistols. I have been waiting for the Dan Wesson DWX but now I am considering a Les Baer haha!
Copy that Sir, I understand. All HK gear is Expensive. The DWX looks pretty good, but there are allot of Les Baers 1911’s for just a little more money to consider. Take Care Sir. 🤔👊🤗🥳😎👍🇺🇸
Beretta Sr.
WOW... Beretta's that's quite a testimonial as I know that you genuinely love the Dan Wesson series of 1911's! Hopefully Beretta Sr. is on the mend and Thanks for this review... I too love that "Distressed Finish", but the Shinny is Nice as well ';-)
Yes it is hard to move on from the Excellent Dan Wesson’s, but I am very happy that I was able to make 7 or 8 Quality Videos on these very good 1911 Pistols. I thought this Video was a fitting Video Review tribute to end our Dan Wesson coverage on. There may be another video down the road on a Dan Wesson product, or a CZ pistol in the future, I just don’t know when that will be. We are looking forward to moving on to the Les Baer 1911’s, and HK Handguns and Smith & Wesson revolvers are all coming up in 2020 and 2021. Along with Bul Armory, Sig, Walther, and an AK47 my first. All coming up my friend.... it should be a good year. Stay Safe! 🥳😎👍🇺🇸
Beretta Sr.
@@BERETTA9mmUSA you're the Best Beretta Sr. and Jr., love your Stuff and thanks for posting! Sincerely, Mike...
@@BERETTA9mmUSA Hey Beretta Sr & Jr... Do you have any experience with the Dan Wesson V-Bob Valor in 9mm? there is one on GB for 1300 that looks pretty enticing ';-) Thanks, Mike...
Idk how I stumbled on this channel but it's excellent. Really helpful info for us new 1911 guys. Enjoyed 'lil Beretta's considerations on returning the DW in favor of the Les Baer. Have a nice weekend gents.
Thank-you Sir, we are happy that you found us. Lots of Gun Videos here we hope you like. 🥳😎👍🇺🇸
Beretta Sr.
Hi great review as always question I want to get a Dan wesson 1911 45 in your opinion witch one should I get first between the PM45 or the specialist
The Full-Size Specialist is both of our Favorites!! I sold my PM45 to help pay for my Les Baer Boss and Nighthawk. It turned out not to be my #1 Dan Wesson, but held its value really well and I sold it for $1,300..... The Les Baer Boss was $2,100 so that was an easy decision for me. Take Care Sir! 👊🤗🥳😎👍🇺🇸
Beretta Sr.
Finally went the day after Christmas to shoot my specialist commander after Santa brought the wife a Glock 43x she was begging to go lol! I was only hoping I was as accurate with the DW as I was the Kimber pro tle/rl. The DW was ridiculously accurate and recoiled like a dream. Such a well balanced sweetheart. A life long friend!
Very Nice! I hope the wife liked the 43X also. Congratulations to both of you for picking Fantastic Pistols! Now get a few extra magazines when you can. :) 🥳👍🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸. Beretta Sr.
Sorry I just saw this 2 years later! Love you guys and your content!
I have the duty finish Specialist Commander and she is a hefty gal! This rotates with my Glock 20 as my nightstand gun. Attached is an Olight green laser\flashlight mounted on the rail. This is my second Dan Wesson. I own the 9mm Valkyrie. Both DW's are top notch. I just keep adding them to my collection like you!
Both Great Nightstand Guns! That’s how I built my Dan Wesson Collection 2 Guns a Year..... Next thing you know you have 6 Dan Wesson’s to go with that Glock 20.... just like me. LOL! Stay Safe my friend. 🤔👊🤗🥳😎🤔🇺🇸
Beretta Sr.
Love that you've got all the Baers! Saving up to add a Monolith to go along with my Custom Carry, which I got in 2018 for $1890! Love the grip color you chose on the Hemi! Hope senior is well!
We are so pleased that we have a few Les Baer Guys as Subscribers!! I think you will really like the Videos Coming up for 2020 and 2021.... Baer County Here We Come. Beretta Sr. 🤔🤗🥳😎🙁👍🇺🇸!!!
@@BERETTA9mmUSA lookimg forward to it! Always enjoy your videos! I bought a Sig P320 x5 legion and look forward to shooting it when I can escape from Australia and get back home to Illinois for 3 months! When will the ammo shortage end do think?
yankinoz1956 I look forward to coming back to the states Sir! I am Sure that New Sig is calling your name I am sure! Also it’ll always be great for you to add one more Les Baer custom 1911 for your collection. The Les Baer 1911 Custom 1911s just give me total joy, I really enjoy them not only at the range but when you get them out of the safe once a week or every third or fourth day and just enjoy handling them and looking at how beautiful they really are. Take care, and stay safe and have a wonderful flight home. BerettaSr. 🤗🥳👊😎👍🇺🇸.
Actually, it doesn't look all that distressed. I may look into that model a little deeper. 👍
Icarryone It is more of the way they did the Finish like they did on my Nighthawk Thunder Ranch 1911..... The finish is very smooth and perfect with o imperfections or real marks in the finish of the handgun itself. 🤔🤗😎👊🥳👍🇺🇸
Beretta Sr.
@@BERETTA9mmUSA Agreed - I kinda got a chuckle out of comparing "that" finish to several 1911's that I've spent years carrying. Now those have a "truly" distressed finish. 👀!!
Iv'e got the grey coloured Dan Wesson CO2 powered BB gun because i live in the UK and we have a total ban on hand guns semi automatic and revolvers and i love it. The trigger is a little heavy though is it the same for all Dan Wesson's BB guns and real steel versions It's a (RIF) real imitation fire arm so it looks identical to the real steel gun. I also have the Night Hawk full size 1911 (RIF) and the trigger is totally different on that one much nicer and lighter again CO2. Because they look real you have to have a UKARA or some other form of defence certificate to buy.
As always guys great video! I definitely have to agree that when it comes to 1911s that I'm pretty much done with production guns. The extra money you pay to get a baer, a wilson, a nighthawk, a brown or whatever is well worth every penny for the upgrade in quality and not to mention pride of ownership. There's something to be said about having a real craftsman build your gun as opposed to a robotic machine. Keep up the great work. Can't wait for that usp vid and take care my brothers. Hope beretta sr. Is doing well!
Thanks Very Much TT!! I am getting better each day, and I hope to be all the way Recovered by the end of Next Week! Stay Safe, and I am looking forward to the Wilson. 👊🤗🥳😎👍🇺🇸
Beretta Sr and YB!
@@BERETTA9mmUSA glad to hear it brother!
Man Dan Wesson 1911's are amazing and apparently good looking in distressed. I've only shot one before but it was a smooth shooter. Thanks for the video!
I held the DW Wraith 10mm Distressed. Beautiful but $500 higher than this Specialist and out of my price range. I was told the distressed is painted silver and then black and some of the black is rubbed off before heat treatment.
Good to hear Baretta Senior's voice.
Thanks my friend, and God Bless.
🤗🥳😎👍🇺🇸. Beretta Sr.
Love the looks of this version of the Specialist.
It is a pretty good 1911 Commander overall for sure. 🥳😎👍🇺🇸
Beretta Sr.
I have the distressed specialist full size 45 and it’s my favorite 1911 that I own. Dead accurate and reliable.
Mags would b bter coated
They come both ways for your use. Take your pick at WilsonCombat.com.
Beretta Sr.
Love the distress look and commander size, this in the 10 m would be nice. Glad to hear your doing better.
Thanks my friend! Stay Safe out there.
👊👍🇺🇸. Beretta Sr.
Not Recommended? My Dan Wessons have been great.
We had a terrible customer service encounter where our larger gun dealer had to get involved to force Dan Wesson to fix a New gun. That’s when I sold half my Dan Wesson collection. Dan Wesson insisted that we must fire a bunch of reloaded ammo threw our guns….. which is not true at all, as all of our Subscribers even know we only fire factory ammo. Poor customer service, hopefully they are much better in 2023.
We have not purchased a New Dan Wesson in 4 years or more because of it. Just done. Wilson Combat has been the best in our 12 years of doing the Channel. That’s our experience.
B9USA Sr.
So if you don't mind me asking, why the switch from Tripp research Cobra mags to Wilson Combat mags? Just wondering and great video by the way
Both are great, the switch is because we have more Wilson Combat magazines than Tripp cobra mags. - YB
Plus I Received 10 Wilson Magazines for Christmas then before The coronavirus I was able to pick up 10 more magazines from Wilson combat direct while they were on sale. So in all total I have of almost 30 Wilson combat magazines purchased in the last eight months.
Keep in mind I own almost 10 1911 Pistols in all. 😎👍🇺🇸. Beretta Sr.
Can't wait for those upcoming Les Baer videos. Also I'd love to see you guys review some Cabot 1911s. Gr8 vid as usual, guys. 🔫
Yes Sir! Thanks very much for watching, and I enjoyed coming by your Channel and checking out some of you videos.
Respectfully, B SR 🤗🥳👊😎👍🇺🇸
@@BERETTA9mmUSA Thank you sir, for the very kind words. 🔫👍😊
I love the Hemi without all the black controls. I have the LB Gunsite pistol. My only complaint is that the blued finish is rusting, I work in a hot sweaty kitchen so I understand the pistol gets wet a lot. It is not a problem though, I love it & rust can be cleaned off- it is definitely not a safe queen.
Copy that Sir! My Current CCW is a Full-Size Dan Wesson Vigil..... I am going to do a CCW Update after June 2020 as I am planning to change my CCW to something else..... by a make that we own in comment. :) That’s my current plan anyway. Take Care Sir.
🥳😎👍🇺🇸. Beretta Sr.
I carry a blued LB as well in a very hot/humid environment. Eezox followed by a coat of Renaissance Wax. There's several threads on the 1911 forums about the subject. The Brits have been waxing their blued doubles since the beginning.
I have a Question, If You buy a new Gun, Do you have to put any Lubrication in it before shooting it?
Yes, a light coat of oil on the rails from the slide to the frame, and a little in the feed ramp area. Try that and you should be good to go. Beretta Sr. 🥳😎👍🇺🇸
@@BERETTA9mmUSA Thank You. Would that almost be the same for a Revolver? I recently Purchased a S&W M&P Bodyguard 38.Speacial Revolver, Just going through the 10 day waiting period from the California Dros System.
Echo556 V1 No Revolvers just need a little oil spread around all over the outside of the Gun and then wipe it all off with a Gun Rag. Make sure you clean the cylinder and Clean the inside of the Barrel every 2nd range trip that you practice. This is kind of hard to explain so you need to look up some videos that talk about how to clean a revolver. That should help you a lot. Take care and have a good evening. Beretta Senior.
@@BERETTA9mmUSA Thank You very Much, I appreciate your Time Sir.
Based on your videos I bought a Dan Wesson ECP. I was going to buy a Dan Wesson ECO next but it sounds like you are saying Les Bear is better and I am very confused.
I am a modern 1911 design Fanboy!!
They are great..... I do not care for the older ones, or most of the out of the USA 1911 Pistols. That’s just me, I have tried several and they are gone the next month. I enjoy my Smith&Wesson, Sigs, Desert Eagles, Dan Wesson’s, Les Baers, and my one and only Nighthawk. :)
👊🥳😎👍🇺🇸. Beretta Sr.
@@BERETTA9mmUSA 👍
Pulled the trigger on a DW Specialist Commander in distresed. Wow! Quality may not be to your new love LB, but for $1400..to me it was well worth it.
Great channel for 1911 content! Though if you don't mind me asking, is there any truth to the Colt 1911s not being up to par when it comes to build quality? I always seem to come across about how they've fallen behind on build or it's not as good as it used to be.
I’ve wanted the Distressed for a while. It’s definitely on the list
It is pretty Cool, it reminds me of the Nighthawk Thunder Ranch 1911 that we did a video on 2 months ago. It is unbelievably smooth compared to any 1911 on the market. With that comes a MSRP of $3300 and I was able to get it for $2900, just so you have some comparisons in mind. If you can get the Distressed for around $1800 or less, it is a very nice Dan Wesson 1911 and you will be very pleased with your purchase. Young Beretta and I are holding on to our Dan Wesson Specialists. 🤗🥳👊😎👍🇺🇸. Beretta Sr.
Done with e-lander mags?
cityduke505 yeah, they started falling apart on us so we ditched them - YB
You might make me a believer in the Specialist Distressed Commander 1911 vs. the CBOB since it has a rail and the extra weight looked apparent in less muzzle flip for that size. Would not have to be concerned with potential scratching that you might have with a the more polished finished on the CBOB. Nice Wilson magazines. New range activity snow mag hunt, lol...Thank you Beretta Sr. and Young Beretta (very fine looking Les Baers)!
You are Great Sir! I appreciate your sense of humor for sure. God Bless, and stay safe. 🤗🥳😎👍🇺🇸. Beretta Sr.
!! At 5:28 the slide to frame "looseness" shocked me. I have this exact model. In fact, serial number is within 40. I have zero play in mine.
Fitting of the gun depend on gunsmiths even for the production one. I like my with littlest play as possible for 1911, I have to inspect its play in person before I buy. It seem to me thought that sig 1911 fitting are better than series 226 or 229 majority of the time that I have seen at gun shops.
I had the same kind of dilemma. I was looking at one of the new duty coated DW Valors or a Les Baer. My LB Custom Carry should get here this week!
This is a 3 year Adventure that I have been on regarding Dan Wesson and Les Baer 1911’s. I was somewhat disappointed in my very first Les Baer, Not in the way the Les Baer 1911 ran, as it has been nearly flawless for almost 4 years now, but in the Finish and the scratching from an over tight Ambi-safety. I actually thought Dan Wesson made a better 1911 overall at that time. However in the last 12 months I have purchased 3 other Les Baer 1911’s including 2 used Les Baers (The Boss and The 1st Gen Thunder Ranch) These are Better quality than any Dan Wesson 1911 that I own. So that is a Comparison to 7 or 8 Dan Wesson’s. Not by a Huge Amount, but by a Noticeable Amount For Sure! No Question at all..... you can see it when you take a Close Look At This Video! Remember the first 90% of this Dan Wesson Specialist video is Singing The Praises of this Dan Wesson 1911. After all of that and going over the pistol in complete detail, it is quickly compared to two Les Baer pistols that in my opinion blow it completely out of the water. The Dan Wesson’s are Nice, but I think The Les Baers 1911’s win by 3 Touchdowns in this “Football Game” 42 to 21 ....... Les Baer for the Win!!
🤔🤗🥳👊😎👍🇺🇸
Beretta Sr.
It's nice to hear your voice again, Sr. I hope you are doing well. This appears to be another great shooting DW and the distressed finish looks great. Had to laugh, but yes I'd hate to lose a Wilson mag in the snow, too. Be safe!
Thanks my friend, I am on my way to feeling much better, I hope to be back to work in another week with a bit of luck. I have Enjoyed my Several Dan Wesson 1911’s, but it is time to move on to other things for the Channel. A couple Les Baers and a HK USP 45 along with 2 Smith&Wesson Revolvers should heal that pain. LOL. Stay Safe Sir!
🤗🥳😎👍🇺🇸. Beretta Sr.
Great video, as always. But I wonder why one would pick a Commander sized pistol of this weight, and not go for the full Government model instead.
I really like that distressed look. Why is it the higher end 1911's use a skeleton hammer but not trigger? Also, how is Sr. feeling?
Hi Joe! I am still getting better at home. I really hope I can get back to work in another week. Not sure who picks the triggers out for the companies, but buyers seem to either like the solid triggers or the skeleton triggers. I am a little different and I like both designs.
Take Care Joe. From: Beretta Sr.
I prefer a ring hammer instead of a skeleton hammer like on the newer Colt combat commanders and old hi powers with ring hammers
I love the fact that you guys are always brutally honest, not afraid to actually choose a winner or show problems you may experience during a review. Throw in the 1911 gun porn, and what's not to love, LOL. I am excited about the changes coming to the channel!
First, Thank-you very much for Realizing what 90% of our Viewers do not. Our Very Honest Reviews have cost us Products to Review including more firearms for testing. We do not Charge The Industry standard of $1800 per video according to the Internet averages worldwide. We often try to get the product for review with the ability to keep the product or get the option to buy at a 30% to 40% Discount .... Dan Wesson for Example gives us a Content creator discount of 33% off Full Retail. As a Regular Buyer, you should be able to get a 10% discount from full retail, so you can see our deal is about 20% more off full Retail. The Botton Line for US is our Viewers and even More So.... Our Subscribers. We both realize without you all, we just have the Hobby that we love. (Which is important) but our Reputation is everything in this business, (Being a Gun Reviewer) as far as I’m concerned. Thanks again Baby Hulk and stay safe out there. 🤗🥳👊😎👍🇺🇸
Beretta Sr. Remember us calling Dan Wesson out to fix the Rusty Hammers in the Dan Wesson Vigil Full Size Review. There have been 7 or 8 other videos where other Products or Firearms (Not Dan Wesson) did not meet our Expectations and therefore did not get a Recommendation By Us, as you know. Thanks again for pointing this stuff out, I think it gets missed by most viewers out there. Much Respect.
🤗🥳👊😎👍🇺🇸. Beretta Sr.
Hey guys,
Love your in depth reviews on 1911's and I've been looking at a lot of them. Even if it's not a question about the Commander you review here, I thought I'd post it here at a more recent vid.
I'm going to buy my first private gun after having worked with Glocks for 20 yrs and I'm convinced I want a 1911 with all the pro's and cons that entails. Manly man's gun and more importantly, Hannibal Smith had one, right! I really like the S&W E-series for the looks and the apparently more reliable external extractor they rock. But the DW Specialist really gets my heart going faster. But yeah. The price tag, right... Now that you had DW's and those E-series for a good long while, would you still reckon a 1911 newbie should go for a DW rather than a S&W E-series considering the price dif? Will they both stand the test of time with equal maintenance?
Thanks for taking the time to read my ramblings! Chur from a Dutchy in New Zealand
Ordered my DW specialist distressed full size! I pick it up Wednesday! DW doesn’t have the commander distressed listed anymore. Or maybe I missed it.
You should Love that 1911!! We are keeping both of our Dan Wesson Specialist as they are totally Awesome!!
Congratulations! 🤗🥳😎👍🇺🇸

I knew you guys would come around. LB & H&K, oh yeah. 😜 DW’s are nice, but Les Baer is HOF worthy imho in 1911s. My Premier II 1.5 is an amazing shooter. The Usp45t/usp45 is absolutely bombproof & just a beast mode tank. Watch out, HK is addictive. Glad to hear Sr is feeling better! Best wishes.
Yes, I think that Les Bear Boss that I bought 6 months ago really set this party in motion, and if you watch the Top 5 Guns for 2020..... you could see this commitment to Les Baer coming for sure. I know the HK is news around here, but in my opinion long overdue. I am ready and Excited for Summer 2020! Stay Safe My Friend. 🤗🥳👊😎👍🇺🇸. Beretta Sr.
Guys I need to see a pic of that Dan Wesson, Les Baer, and Nighthawk. Please.
That’s a great idea my friend. I will try to get that Gun Porn Done some point. :)

I'm sorry but I cannot see the worth of this handgun or any other that isn't custom made. Way way over priced for a production handgun, to many other reasonable options out there.
The last 2 minutes of this Video Review would agree with you my friend. 😎👍🇺🇸. Beretta Sr.
