Dan Wesson Specialist 9mm 5" 10rds Pistol, Black – 01796

When police departments sought a more reliable and durable 1911 to replace their current models, we responded with a specialized solution. The Specialist originally crafted for law enforcement, now serves as an ideal choice for home defense, available to the public. This full-size 1911 is offered in .45 ACP, 10mm or 9mm, equipped with features tailored to meet the unique demands of public servants. Its forged stainless steel slide features an inverted top rib, complemented by a single amber tritium dot rear sight and a green lamp with a white target ring front sight. The frame includes an integral 1913 picatinny rail, 25 LPI front strap checkering, undercut trigger guard and recessed slide stop, accommodating laser grips. Ambidextrous thumb safety, extended magazine release and detachable magwell enhance operator usability. To ensure a secure grip, the Specialist comes with G10 VZ Operator II grips that guide the hand into the beavertail and maintain stability. It ships with two 8-round magazines featuring bump pads (10-rounds for 9mm), all within a robust duty black finish, designed to withstand rigorous use and resist everyday wear and tear.
