Several months ago I decided it was time for me to buy my first firearm. I decided on and ordered a Kimber Stainless Ultra 45. I have not yet received it. Today I went to a gunshow and came home with a Dan Wesson Commander Bobtail, which has become my "first", making the Kimber my "second" when it arrives. It's a real pleasure to be here.

Gallenl to the 
. I have a cousin who lives in Las Cruces, NM.............you aren't him are you? First name Dave. Now those brass chuckers are nic but you have to get a revolver also 
. We can direct you to many choices. Just ask. The 15-2 is a good starter but there are many more in the family.
I have a Kimber Ultra CDP II in 9mm and I like it. Finely made gun. I also just got (3 months ago) a Fusion 10mm. That's a good one too.
When you get the Kimber let see some 
of the two cause

Glad to have you aboard,

Allen. We hope you're not disappointed to find that we are more in tune with revolvers than 1911's. Not that we don't like them. We all have them too, but our focus is on the classic DW revolvers. Hopefully we can convince you to join in our passion.

Allen,
I am planning a trip to visit my cousin this summer. I'll have to look you up and we can do some shooting out in the desert. Last time I was there we went into the Organ Mtns and plinked some cans. Great fun.

Nice catch, CBOB is a great first gun, actually a great ANY gun. One thing to watch for is that DW 1911's can be pretty tightly fitted. If this is a new one, run it pretty well lubed.
I am fully confident that once you hang around here for a little while, you will be looking around for a nice, clean DW 15-2 .357 Magnum, maybe a 6" Vent Heavy barrel, and then, my friend, you will experience true shooting Nirvana.
Welcome to our corner of the shooting world.
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.
