The Discretion pairs a forged stainless steel frame with Dan Wesson's Duty Treat/Duty Black nitride finish for durability and a uniform, low-glare appearance. The slide is finished to match and features a tri-top profile with top serrations, side lightening windows, rear cocking serrations, and a lowered/flared ejection port.
Its 5.75 in stainless, match-grade threaded barrel is extended and cut .578x28, capped with a knurled thread protector for secure retention. This threaded match-grade barrel is a defining feature of the model and contributes to its accuracy-focused build.
Sight regulation and manipulation are enhanced by suppressor-height night sights, including a tall front night sight and a ledge-style rear night sight. The integral 1913 accessory rail with three slots provides mounting space for rail-compatible accessories.
Controls and ergonomics include a beavertail grip safety with memory bump, a left-side thumb safety, a skeletonized commander-style hammer, and a skeletonized long slotted trigger with a serrated face. The front strap checkering and flat, checkered mainspring housing offer secure purchase, complemented by gray textured G10 grips.
This full-size 1911 runs a Series 70, single-action, hammer-fired system with an 8+1 capacity. Rollmarked "DAN WESSON FIREARMS NORWICH, NY U.S.A.," it carries the discontinued SKU 01885 and UPC 806703018850, representing a distinctive specification set within the Dan Wesson lineup.
