• Outstanding! - Added 1 month, 3 weeks ago.

  Did a lot of research looking for the right 1911 and all research lead me to DW. A near custom gun at the same or better than most higher end factory 1911s. Fit and finish is superb. Quality is perfect. Everything is clean and functions perfectly. The fit of slide to frame is incredible. I picked up my Heritage yesterday and shot 200 rounds this evening. They say you need to allow 200 to 500 rounds of break in for most 1911s, but the Heritage ran without a hiccup or a flinch. Excellent shooter. So accurate that I had to stop aiming for the center of my targets because my shots were going right through the big hole I made! So much fun to shoot. Comfortable. Great trigger with no play and little travel. Perfect fit. A breeze to shoot one handed. Absolutely the best pistol I have ever shot (and I shot a lot of 1911s to find this one). Unbeatable quality 1911 that no one can beat. No one does it better than DW. I am definitely a fan. There is a reason you can't find anything negative on DW - because there is nothing negative about DW. You probably won't find one of these in the wild of your local shop because they don't stay long enough on any shelf. But you can always order one with confidence that it will exceed expectations. Just does not disappoint. I don't think DW knows how to disappoint! DW: glad I found you!
• As nice as any 1911 I've seen - Added 1 month, 3 weeks ago.

  I friend and customer called me this week looking for a Kimber. I suggested he try a HAND MADE 1911 from DW for about the same price. I'd never actually seen the RZ-45 but had shot some of DW's higher priced gun and had no reason to doubt this gun. Well, when I got it in I was very impressed. The finish was gorgeous. The frame to slide fit was snug but not tight. But same goes for the barrel bushing. The trigger broke crisply at 4.5# on my Lyman trigger gauge. I'm sure that will come down as the gun gets used. Just very nicely done. My friend reports its a great shooter. This gun is a STEAL at the current price. Hurry before DW figures this out and raises the price.

  This is an excellent pistol! I would compare it to Ed Brown, Wilson Combat, or Les Bear at half-the-price or less! Still proudly made in the USA.

  You can look everywhere and you won't find a better 1911 at the price of the RZ-45 Heritage. A true bargain. Has the same fit and finish of the highest priced Dan Wesson, and performs just as well.

  This pistol exceeded all of my expectation. The fit and finish is superb. It is inherently accurate, and feeds various factory and handloads without a hiccup. Even the magazines are top notch. Well Done!

  This is a beautifully made handgun. Very well made, top-quality parts throughout, very nicely fitted - especially for the price. Can't wait to take it to the range.

  Beautiful handgun, I love its clean lines and the lack of forward cocking serrations, that seem so prevalent these days. Highly accurate and a pleasure to shoot, definitively satisfied with this one.

  Most accurate .45 I have ever owned. A true pleasure to shoot. I have put over 500 rounds through it, no problems.

  I would proudly compare my DW to Wilson Combat, Ed Brown, or Les Bear any day! I think that says it all. I recommend adding the Crimson Trace LG-401 Lasergrips for a fully modernized, imposing weapon.

  WOW. That's how I feel every time I pick up my Heritage. It has been 100% out of the box. Fit and finish are way above expectations. I look forward to my next Dan Wesson purchase. The Guardian.

  This is top of the line hands down! Customer support right on the money and you will NOT find a more quality pistol for more money! If you like the 1911 style you will love this, absolutely not one problem even breaking in with 200 rounds. If you get one you will enjoy shooting and will prize this piece. Oh I had a K trigger put on and a lower front sight installed, placement is right on if you are good enough!
