Then came the CBOB and it is truely life changing…
It's sure not my first 1911 assembled by these guys and to keep this short I can ditto all the great stuff everyone wrote on the other forums (1911 & XD) about all their work..
I've said it there and want to get on the band wagon here too..
How about a CBOB-9mm? Hmmmmmmm?
An alloy frame CBOB would be my next if they made it…. https://www.danwessonforum.com/wp-content/forum-resources/forum-smileys/', '

Zenfly,
to the 
. Nice trio of 1911's you started with there. The 357 Max is one outstandingly accurate cartridge too. Glad you had the opportunity at one point to shoot IHMSA, I wish I could. I am not very educated on the trends of the 1911 pistol cartridges, what would the real benefit be of a 9MM over a 40 S&W? Thanks for sharing your background and photos.

Welcome Zenfly.
We're glad to have you join our forum. While I have a lot of Dan's, the only 1911 I have is a Kimber.
I really do prefer revolvers but maybe the next 1911 I buy will be a Dan. One of the rules here is that you have to post 
as often as possible, so let's get with it fella.

Zenfly,
I know what you mean about DW 1911s!
I just couldn't figure out what the big deal was about 1911's then I started reading the 1911forum.com and all the comments about DW's quality.
DW 1911's are few and far between in my parts but I finally stumbled across a used and was able to handle it. When you pick one up you can just tell it's a quality gun. I love my CBOB and would like to add more DW 1911's to the collection!

aboard, glad to have ya!
Like SMF, I also missed out on the IHMSA heyday, but I plan on getting some targets made & giving it a try on my own soon, purely for the fun of it.
Nice batch of autos you've got, the rest of the auto guys here will be pleased.

from another IHMSA shooter. I started in 1985 and am still going strong with it...7 days a month at my local range. The .357 SuperMag was my first Dan Wesson, and it got me my first Revolver 40x40 many years ago. I also want to find a DW 1911 of some kind, since all these guys here convinced me I need one! It's on my short list now.

I like that idea...an all inclusive tool box. Everything you need, all in one package.

The only problem is it makes it easy to grab alot of guns..
The plus is it doesn't look like guns.. https://www.danwessonforum.com/wp-content/forum-resources/forum-smileys/', '', '1');" src="../../../wp-content/forum-resources/forum-smileys/dwf.gif" alt="DWF Sign" />

1911 pistols can get to be a real expensive sport. I started down that path for a short time but it led to a dead end 
I still have a Para Ordnance Tac-Four, a Sig GSR Revolution and a Dan Wesson Panther. All of them 45 ACP. I also had an AMT Javelina 10mm for a while but traded it off.
I'm more of a revolver fan with Dan Wesson my overwhelming favorite.
