Dan Wesson V-Bob 01982 Complete Specs and Full Gun Specifications

The popular Bobtail Commander is now available in the Valor series in the form of the V-Bob. The Valor series is our flagship line, meaning its the best we have to offer. Frankly, we feel it is the best built production 1911 on the market. The V-Bob is loaded with features, including a forged Bobtail frame with 25 LPI checkering front and back, an undercut trigger guard, tactical ledge night sights, VZ slim line G10 grips, EGW carry bevel bushings as well as our tool-steel fire controls and other premium small parts. Every piece that goes into the Valor series is hand-fit, polished and blended to provide you with not only the best functioning gun we can provide, but also the best looking. The V-Bob  can be had with either a matte stainless glass bead finish or our super durable black Duty finish. This finish is a revolutionary treatment process that actually bonds to the components and creates a super-durable matte black skin. Our Duty Black finish beats any of the spray-and-bake finishes most companies use today, hands down. Our durability testing proves it and our customers love it which is proof enough for us!

Great 1911. Buds was great at shipping and handling, and I had no problem with my FFL dealer (DTS Tactical Moss Bluff, LA). I have primarily used CCI Blazer 230 grain FMJ, and Federal 230 grain HST. The magazines it came with work great. I have also used

Flawless. Night sights are bright on this one, but I recall some others having issues with them being dim in the other reviews. As far as the gun itself, I lubed it up with some FP10 before taking it to its first range visit per the manual's instructions

This is my first 1911 purchase, Ive been sitting on the fence too long. The fit and finish are excellent. I can see myself purchasing future Dan Wessons. I'm still in the "break in" period and the only problem I've had has been some factory brass cases to

The VBob is an exceptional weapon, beautifully built. It has extremely close tolerances; it is hard to tell where the frame ends and the slide begins. I am very pleased with this 1911, its a keeper!

Received my new Valor and broke it in the same day. I can actually say it's the best firearm in my collection. Excellent weapon extremely accurate. I have purchased various firearms from Buds and they have by far the best prices around.

I was skeptical about the quality of the V-bob for the price, until I recieved it. This gun is absolutely the very best fitted and silky smooth 1911 out there in this price range. Makes me look like alot better shot than I am. 1-1/2'' groups at 15 yards.

I have owned Ed Brown, Les Baer, Kimber, and Colt 1911's. This Dan Wesson Valor Bobtail is my absolute favorite. The finish of this 1911 is as nice as my Ed Brown. It is much nicer than the Colt, Kimber and Les Baers. The fit is superior to all, even my E

Fit and finish on this gun is perfect. This is my second Dan Wesson and I will buying a third (ECO). You cannot beat DW's product at the price they deliver it for. This gun is super accurate and a dream to carry. It is easy to conceal and the bobtail make

I've owned it a little over 1 year now. I STILL think this is the best value in 1911's out there. Fit and finish are better than expected. So far, zero failures of any kind. I would recommend this to anyone.

What a gun. I held the Duty Finish model and Cabela's and really didn't like it. I prefer the matte SS guns. Front strap checkering also felt sharp and not comfortable. Was a little concerned about ordering this gun without being able to hold it and it wa

This release is way over priced. Dan Wesson Had it in the bag, nailed it with the 2008 releases and then got cocky, put out guns with pricing like this with splotch bead blast cheap crap finish? You want black ceramic coating? add $400. Buds is the best p

Recently purchased my new V-Bob from Bud's. As with previous experience, the transaction was smooth and painless. As for the pistol....wow! This is one very nice 1911. The build quality and materials are obviously the very best, as advertised. The finish
