What’s Included
- Dan Wesson/DWX-branded soft zippered carry case
- Factory optics-cut cover plate with integral rear sight (no screws)
- Pair of black checkered grip panels (uninstalled)
- Two factory 15-round 9mm steel magazines with witness holes and 9mm stamp
The compact aluminum-alloy frame features a textured frontstrap and a generous triggerguard undercut for a secure, high hold. Both frame and slide wear Dan Wesson's black Duty finish, and the slide is marked with a stylized dwx script. The barrel hood is marked 9MM, with MATCH roll-marked on the chamber’s side, reflecting the bushingless, match-grade configuration.
The slide is cut for optics and uses the RMSc footprint. The installed optics plate lacks a rear notch, while the included cover plate provides an integral rear notch when installed. Two forward indexing posts on the optics plate aid optic alignment. An AmeriGlo tritium-dot front sight is fitted from the factory.
Controls are single-action with a skeletonized hammer, a red anodized skeletonized trigger, and an ambidextrous thumb safety. Front and rear cocking serrations and a flat, serrated top rib on the slide provide sure handling.
A compact dustcover integrates a multi-slot 1913 accessory rail with five usable slots. Capacity is 15+1, and the pistol ships with two factory 9mm steel magazines. Blue hex-pattern grip panels are installed, with an extra pair of black checkered panels included.
