Yup, I was sorta figuring 4-6 months to be honest, knowing how busy they are. Luckily, I've got other guns to practice and play with, but I am anxious to get it back and see how I like it and how it compares to my 2011s (Bul SAS II Air 2011, Bul Tac 4.25 and Staccato P with a comp barrel). Wish I could directly compare it to a Staccato XC - that'd be fun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So i was hopeful but not actually expecting it back by end of the year. Its okay though I will keep shooting pcc till it gets here. You will have to update it when you get it back and can compare it the bull armory stuff. I am not an irons guy but I was extremely impressed with how flat it shot and how it returned to zero very naturally before I sent it in. So the dot should just make it ten times better.

Complete action tune up, extended mag release and comped barrel with slide cuts. Plus they have to deal with my SRO I couldn't get off (I broke an allen key trying to remove one of the screw, which was odd cause I didn't overtighten them and used medium strength VibraTite). I'm having so much fun with my new 2011s that the wait is OK w/me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ajohnson15 Posted January 20 Share Posted January 20 On 12/9/2023 at 2:40 PM, Seakphotog said: I also think there may be a widespread belief (even among the industry, judging from 2 email exchanges I've had with folks who should know better) that a 1911/2011 safety will work in a DWX. That may be another reason no one's rushing to make them. DW just ought to offer them... I mean if a shop wants the spec. It’s not all the different from a 1911. Might know a guy who would be happy to help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Posvar Posted January 20 Share Posted January 20 I talked it over with SSI regarding doing a Nitro Fin and Nathan said it was different enough from CZ or 1911/2011 to make it a difficult project. Perhaps with more interest he would do it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just looks that way, really just brought the standard front profile of a 1911 safety a in uniform amount, and added some material on the top to engage with slide still when locked. Slide being a bit wider overall would also require some compensation. Edited January 20 by Ajohnson15 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Superkaratemonkeyfighter Posted January 20 Share Posted January 20 (edited) Just drill and tap it. There plenty of room and can be customized to your grip.

I need a magwell to pair with that which works with both the factory basepads and Henning basepads… The factory TSO magwell works with stock DWX and Henning base pads. I did a short range firing before sending the slide off for machining. The Rear of the Henning is real close to hitting the magwell but seats fine. I will likely file a small notch for a little relief where the Henning release pin is. CZ Parts sells the factory magwell but expensive ($110) and in EU so not sure how long/how much shipping would be. Armory Craft looks close to being same profile but unsure.

Kmargetta Posted January 21 Share Posted January 21 Looks to be a grip screw change from DW on the DWX at some point. I ordered LOK grips, and the "DWX Screws". The grips are same as Shadow 2/TSO/etc as most know. The Shadow 2 screws that come with the grips fit the DWX and my TSO. The "DWX Screws" from LOK are too large dia and do not fit the DWX or the TSO. They are same size as 1911 grip screws and the screws thread into my 1911's fully. TSO Screws fit the DWX and factory DWX screws fit the TSO. Might be a new change, not sure. I'll let LOK know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
