Anyone have one of these? I'm looking for one last Commander, all blued/black. Was considering the Valor but as my Colt Wiley Clapp is at the Colt Custom Shop getting a few bells and whistles, I don't want to go all 'high-end' on it.This message has been edited.

Consider the Guardian as well. Like the Vigil, it's an aluminum frame. And while it's a bit more than a Vigil, it's available cheaper than something like a Valor. You might be able to find a comparable price to a Vigil if you shop around. For example, I routinely see new Guardian Blems on Gunbroker for ~$1150. The A2 is another Dan Wesson that's available at a lower price point. But unlike the Vigil or Guardian, it's all steel and doesn't come with night sights. | |||

I have a DW 9mm Valkyrie, and have to say it is one of the best 1911's made. You will be happy with any DW you buy..... | |||

Look at twogunjay’s prices on Gunbroker, best I’ve seen for DW. He has creaming deals _______________________________________________ Use thumb-size bullets to create fist-size holes. | |||

Yep. Sometimes below cost. He used to be a member here, but I haven't seen him active in a while. | |||

And of course as soon as I post this and try again, I figure it out. _______________________________ The artist formerly known as AllenInWV | |||

I just picked up a Dan Wesson Vigil Commander in 9mm over the weekend. It's an absolutely outstanding pistol. I haven't had it to the range yet, but the overall fit, finish, trigger are outstanding. The thumb safety is perfectly fitted and has a decisive snap on/off. I highly recommend Dan Wesson. | |||

Loved my Guardian, excellent pistol. +1 on the blem if you can find one. I picked up a Bruin in 45 last month with minor bluing issues for a deal. Any Dan Wesson is a treat. Good luck. I'd rather be hated for who I am than loved for who I'm not. | |||

I just bought a Valor from him. In the mail as we speak. Just under 1300. That includes the non cash hit I took because I’m too lazy to get a bank check. | |||

My Guardian is as well made as the many Valors I've disassembled. The weight difference is definitely noticeable for me over a steel frame. Doing it again I might get it in 9mm, but not enough to warrant spending the money to swap now. | |||

I’m pretty sure the vigil is the replacement for the guardian _______________________________________________ Use thumb-size bullets to create fist-size holes. | |||
