Well, as my luck would have it, someone in my area dumped a few Dan Wessons on the market.  I'd been eyeballing a 15 for a while and just hadn't picked it up.  Now I'm sitting on a 15 and a 44...and couldn't be happier with them.

 

Thanks for all the info.  All of you who have contributed have made this DWF newbie quite pleased on the subject material.  I just wish there were a way to convince the BATFE to release the serial numbers in association to dates, nothing more.  But we all know that's a dead issue.

Welcome to the forum!  Sounds like you have been bitten by DWAS!

I have actually exchanged some letters with my Senator on the issue of the records so hopefully that will lead somewhere!

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.

Thanks everyone.  I made the mistake of posting on a website that I was looking for DW's, seems like there are plenty of them out there, especially in the pistol packs.

 

Unfortunately for me, those folks tend to know what they have.  I have a lead on one, but I'm not sure I can pop $1000 give or take on one just yet...not with the 445 and 357 Supermags calling my name.

Welcome to the DWF.

I see the beginnings of a case of DWAS coming on.  Well, join the club; it seems to be rampant here and supplies are getting shorter all the time.

I hope you enjoy your Dan's and our forum.

Supplies get shorter as does my pocket book.  I had to pass on an unfired pack yesterday that was only missing the buckle and the patch priced at $1050.  Going to kick myself, but I couldn't come up with enough cash and would have insulted the seller to at $850...he knew what he had thankfully and I wasn't about to try to steal it away.

$450 would have been an insult, $850 would have been a fair offer. I have made

many purchases with what was only in my pocket.
