What is that grip made out of on the Heritage? Its beautiful.drool

 

How do you like the ECO in 45?  I'm trying to decide 45 or 9mm.

Anything worth doing is worth doing well.

The grip is boxelder with a stabilizer and die injected.  Bigger is always better I would get the.45 but the 9mm are easier to find. My ECO does kick but it seems less than my heritage.

Looks you have the older model Heritage with the polished flats on the frame.  I like the looks it a lot better than the current one with the bead blasted flats.

That's a great looking ECO . . . I should be picking mine up this Monday. How do you like the ECO and have you had any difficulty as far as FTE's?  I'm new to Dan Wesson's but I've heard great things so I'm looking forward to handling the ECO for the first time.

Never be sad about only 1 DW, you have a pretty nice 1911 group there. Looks like a Longslide in the herd.

Give us a rundown on what we are seeing.

I went to a bookstore and asked the saleswoman "Were is the Self Help Section?" She said if she told me, it would defeat the purpose.
