Selling my Dan Wesson 1911 VBOB in .45ACP. It has exactly 50 rounds down range with zero failures, was cleaned, and placed in the safe. The gun has never been placed in a holster. It is immaculate. Box and all things from the factory. The newer VBOB’s which mine is has some upgrades that DW did too it. One of my favorites is the flat face trigger it is great. I just have too many 1911’s and too many credit cards. Those that know 1911’s know that Dan Wesson 1911’s is the closest you come to a custom 1911. Absolutely no trades. Asking $1800.00. There are no forms, taxes, or transfers fees. However if I don’t already know you then you will need to show your Texas DL or LTC and be able to own a handgun in Texas.
This is from the Dan Wesson website:
A commander sized variation of the Valor, the V-Bob is ideal for a quality handgun that can be utilized as a concealed carry firearm. A bobbed mainspring housing and 4.25 inch barrel condense the V-Bob, making it sleek and compact, while tapered grips, an ambidextrous safety, and a recessed slide stop add tactical value. Our new inset serrations knock down the glare between the sights — a serrated U-notch in the rear and a tritium with a large orange ring in the front. Classic good looks come courtesy of a set of GI-style rear slide serrations. The stainless slide and frame on V-Bobs can be had in a bead-blasted finish or our black Duty Coat — a signature finish that makes the stainless even hardier. For folks who like both, we now have a two-tone as well.

If I was in the market, I'd buy that.... It's a beauty.
Top of my list for a potential 1911 purchase when I can afford it.

It looks sexy. Does it shoot in curves?

I was thinking the same. I love the way it looks. I wish I could afford it. I sold all my 1911's over the past 2 years and need to fill that hole in my heart. My rags to riches and back to rags story. Five years ago I would have been all over that gun.

Unless you just like color of stainless this black Duty Coat is a lot more durable and is warranted.
