A fine piece of hardware. Yes, I have full up customs and semi customs that are more but typically for at least 2X the money. Bottom line... No 1911 out there come close for anywhere near the same money.   |

Do the Dan Wesson stainless guns still have issues with galling or did they address that issue?

Improperly matched stainless 1911 slides and frames are a galling issue waiting to happen. Bought my first stainless DW about 20 years ago. Never saw a galling issue. Did see big time stainless 1911 galling 40 years ago in the AMT Hardballer. Colt figured it out and life was good.

Improperly matched stainless 1911 slides and frames are a galling issue waiting to happen. Bought my first stainless DW about 20 years ago. Never saw a galling issue. Did see big time stainless 1911 galling 40 years ago in the AMT Hardballer. Colt figured it out and life was good. ****** As stainless steel fever spread, a neighbor had the hots for the first stainless 1911 to come on the scene. Cautioned him to wait for Colt to introduce one. Believe the first stainless 1911 wore the name Randall of AMT JHardballer, soft, ill-fit jammamatics. Eventually a Colt Series 80 stainless came out; neighbor and myself fetched one each and did some good shooting, from out yonder to penetration experiments on automobiles up close. One day at the town dump, we stood one of the old vacuum tube televisions on an oil drum. Neighbor shot it with his stainless Colt. The heavy TV flipped backwards like George Foreman had punched it, a gray cloud of atomized glass where the TV had stood. The reaction of the TV stunned us, as no .45 has the muscle to push over a fat old television. Then, experience with explosives drifted in, and this is the way I see it. The .45 slug penetrated the thick glass, shattering the front of the vacuum tube. Atmospheric pressure dove into the vacuum, instantly flipping the television backwards. In blasting the effect is called IMPLOSION. David Bradshaw |
