New to the forum so I'm just saying hello!  Have only one DW, a 15-2VH with a 6" bbl.

Another forum had a question about DW, never having heard of the company so it got me reinterested.  I've had this gun since about 1980, a Monson built, and is probably 99% + as it was my fathers and only fired about 20x.  Just got it out and did a side-by-side comp with my Colt Python.  I'd say the DW held it's own.  Evaluation by current market prices.....the Python is not 3 x the gun by any means.

Hey Jay Welcome.  Dan Wesson is as tough as a Ruger, slick as a S&W and as

accurate as any Colt. So....by right it should cost a 1/3 third of a Dan Wesson Laugh

And the Truth Shall Set You FREE. The Python is one of the finest production revolvers ever made. I'd rather have 3 DW's, or a Pistol Pack and some money for ammo.

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.
