Hopefully holster options are decent, I'd really like a Safariland 6390. I'd be upgrading from a Glock. I dont really see this as a solution to a nonexistent problem IMO, it's just a cool new gun. New designs/ engineering is really exciting after only seeing the same thing time after time. Sadly I doubt we'll see a 6390 or much of anything out of safariland for this if their support for other CZs is anything to go off of.

I just really like the ALS vs any type of hood. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know this specific gun is for Limited, but I hope they release some alternate versions. I want to see threaded barrels/compensators and optics. It seems like they could make this into an interesting 3 gun open gun/USPSA open gun without too much effort. I could see that happening sometime late next year or early 2021. Probably feel out the market with the Limited version first to see how the overall reception is then roll out other variants. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’d bet money you could find a current 2011 optic mount that would fit the DWX without modification like it was made for it. Just remove the iron sights and drill and tap the frame. Shouldn't take long after it’s available on the market for threaded barrels to start being made by aftermarket manufacturers as well Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pistolpete9 Posted October 29, 2019 Share Posted October 29, 2019 For those of you who don't get it, I have often felt that way about a LOT of different guns that are released....this isn't one of them. Because I already own a TS that I've mangled and beaten, I won't be able to get one of these until the TS stops running, which I'm guessing will happen around 50 years from now. Had this gun been out 5 years ago, I wouldn't have even given it a second thought. Of course, it has zero track record and will have to be absolutely flawless in its reliability to approach TS status, but if it is, I don't know why anyone would run a 2011 in limited ever again. Cheaper gun, better grip, cheaper AND more reliable mags. This thing looks like a win from every angle to me IF it runs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rudukai13 Posted October 30, 2019 Share Posted October 30, 2019 I experienced a moment of terror when I didn’t see a pic rail on the compact model, then calmed back down when they said “Railed and non-railed models will be available...” This is really, really smart of them. Release a fullsize gun for competition/duty, and a compact model that has identical ergonomics/trigger pull/construction for people to use for CCW so all the guns one might want or need are essentially the same platform. Great move CZ/DW! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rudukai13 Posted October 31, 2019 Share Posted October 31, 2019 I think what excites me most about these guns isn’t so much specifically the guns themselves, but the general concept of a company grafting a 1911-style SAO hammer-fired trigger and controls onto a double-stack frame that uses magazines from another popular pistol that the company already makes. Imagine S&W, Sig, hell even Glock designing similar all-metal pistols that use the 1911-style SAO hammer-fired trigger and controls, but feed from the double stack magazines from their popular striker-fired duty pistols. A double-stack 1911 that takes P320 mags would be absolutely irresistible to me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
muncie21 Posted November 1, 2019 Share Posted November 1, 2019 I see one of these in my future, however wondering about availability. Hopefully these will be readily available, unlike the TSOs when they first came out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Midwest3Gunner Posted November 1, 2019 Share Posted November 1, 2019 I think Dan Wessons are made in New York? So hopefully there won't be the import delay/ odd batch problems the TSO has.

K-wal Posted November 1, 2019 Share Posted November 1, 2019 I wish the checkering on the compact frame was more aggressive. I wonder why they chose the 75 compact mags vs. the P07/10 mags. Either way, definitely interested in both models. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only thing from czech here is an extractor spring and pin, slide stop spring, the s2 rear sight on the full size, and the mags (but really those are from Italy) Eta: frames are cut from forgings like all dan wesson 1911 frames Edited November 1, 2019 by Ajohnson15 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nice. Can't wait to get a few of them here in the shop. We've already got customers asking about us making threaded barrels and some other misc parts for them.

repins1911 Posted November 5, 2019 Share Posted November 5, 2019 I shoot both CZ and 2011 platforms. I believe this will be a great gun for newish, slightly seasoned shooters. The benefits of this is: price point for a well made blaster, much cheaper mags that won't require a lot of tuning, and ergos. I am into each of my 2011 mags at least $90 but more around $110. Using existing CZ mags for $35 and figure around another $40 for extensions and guts. Once I get to shoot one, and reliability has been put to the test, I may abandon the 2011.
