obsessiveshooter Posted January 22, 2022 Share Posted January 22, 2022 They have 563 completed, boxed, ready to ship pistols, but the the 2008 Dodge ram that they bring the boxes to the post office in has dead fuel pump and the replacement fuel pump is on a container ship in the pacific. They could get a replacement part on Ebay but the Dan Wesson purchasing manager is a stickler for high-quality OEM parts. Something like that.

Posvar Posted January 22, 2022 Share Posted January 22, 2022 This is starting to remind me of one of those books I read as a kid that has many different endings and you can choose which one you take. But they all end in death. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If DW was that close to shipping several times why would the project be put on the back burner? Maybe the Colt acquisition played into the decision.

They were ready to ship, they tested first batch and it was not good enough (did not work) So they are aging it so its perfect and goes bang every time.

jlficken Posted January 26, 2022 Share Posted January 26, 2022 Looks like I made the right decision grabbing a P-09 instead. The DWX would have been nice (probably), however, I've grown tired of everything being blamed on COVID and I'm not just talking about the DWX. There's no excuse for Dan Wesson not giving the finger to NY (since the lockdown's were months and months long) and moving the company to a different state since Dan Wesson isn't a large company. Would it have been ideal...no, however, at some point as a business you have to cut your losses. If you can't make/sell products then you aren't going to remain in business as you'll pi$$ of your customers and they'll go elsewhere. Other companies that are larger than DW have already moved in the last 2 years. Remington was sold, moved, and has already reopened and are shipping several models of firearms during COVID so it can be done. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It no longer even shows up in the search results on their website and you get a 404 (Page not Found) when trying to go to https://danwessonfirearms.com/product/dwx/ It's most likely dead I'm thinking...good job DW Yet again I get burned thinking that because a gun company announces something that they'll actually deliver it.

Nolf1344 Posted February 1, 2022 Share Posted February 1, 2022 It was mentioned in the thread previously but per their instagram, they have “decided to halt promotion of the DWX” until it meets “the standards that we have set and that our customers deserve.” I’m guessing the gun is just not ready for mass production and so instead of leaving it up on the site and getting hundreds of phone calls and emails every week asking when it’ll be available, they are just going dark on it until it’s closer to/ready for production.
