The DWX Compact combines a single-action, hammer-fired system with a flat, skeletonized trigger. Factory trigger spec is approximately 3.5–4.5 lb, delivering a crisp break suited to precise shooting. A manual thumb safety and a push-button magazine release provide straightforward, familiar controls.
The 4 in bushingless match-grade barrel is marked on the hood with “MATCH” and “9MM.” The slide wears a matte black Duty finish and features front and rear serrations plus top-rib serrations for confident manipulation. Sights are a tritium-illuminated front post paired with a Battlehook fixed wedge-style rear.
The optics-ready slide uses Dan Wesson’s adapter plate system and includes Adapter Plate 1 for RMR-footprint optics. An optics-cut cover plate is fitted when no optic is installed. The rear-sight dovetail spec is 0.250 in x 0.74 in, per the adapter plate packaging.
