They were making some extremely good firearms!
I'm a big fan of DW's and have one of their .44 mag and a .445 Supermag. Great shooters! I love them!
I am not sure what they are like now since CZ bought them but the factory looks to still be in Norwich NY which is where Serva moved DW after he purchased it. With that I believe that means that it is still basicly relatively new tooling/machines since Chuck updated it to CNC since he had purchased it and hoped to get the DW name back into the market. DW's were mainly used by pistol silhouet shooters and really didn't make it big into the general firearms community. I'm glad the name is still around and the last review I saw about their .45 acp CCO Bobtail in Combat Handguns March 2010 issue was extremely good.
I'm hoping to purchase in the future a matching pair of their .45 acp 1911's. We'll see what Household 6 aka the wife says about that idea. </div></div>
I believe you mean Bob Serva. He still makes 1911's; I have one on order.
Fusion Firearms! Dan Wesson 1911's are still good from what I have read. They seem to be really popular and I have heard nothing but good things. The general consensus is that they are bargain and the quality has not dropped since CZ took over. </div></div>
I stand corrected. It's been a while since I had talked Wessons.
I have to agree that their customer service was out standing! It was a pleasure to talk to one of their gun smiths on the phone.
