Dan Wesson Specialist 1911 .45 ACP, 5-inch Stainless, Night Sights, Rail — Excellent Condition
This Dan Wesson Specialist is a full-size, Government-length 1911 in .45 ACP with a forged stainless-steel slide and frame, matte stainless finish, and AmeriGlo tritium night sights. It features a match-grade, bushing-fitted 5-inch barrel, an integral 1913 Picatinny rail, and aggressive G10 grips. Made in Norwich, New York, this pistol is in excellent condition and includes the factory case, manual, bushing wrench, and one 8-round magazine.
The Specialist configuration brings duty-focused upgrades like ambidextrous controls, a flared magwell, and checkering where it matters. Its flat-top, serrated slide, front and rear cocking serrations, and tactical ledge rear sight support confident manipulation and sight tracking. The beavertail grip safety with memory bump and the solid curved trigger add to the consistent single-action feel.
Forged stainless construction and a matte stainless finish deliver durability and a clean, non-reflective profile. The checkered front strap and mainspring housing provide a secure purchase, while the skeletonized rowel hammer and tuned 1911 action underscore its focused build quality. The frame’s integral 1913 rail with three slots is ready for compatible accessories.
The AmeriGlo H3 18-marked tritium front pairs with a tritium tactical ledge rear for low-light capability. Capacity is 8+1 with the included Dan Wesson factory 8-round steel magazine. This Specialist reflects Dan Wesson’s precision approach, combining match-grade components with practical duty features.
