Handguns Descriptions

Dan Wesson 1911 A2 Commander

The Commander-length version of the A2, this pistol has identical features but with a shorter slide and barrel, which clocks in at 4.25 inch. With the same capacity, but more compact dimensions, the A2 Commander is a no-brainer for concealed carry. Fixed Sight, A clean and crisp Novak-style snag-free sight. Smooth Frontstrap, Sometimes less is more, the lack of checkering on this frontstrap highlights the smooth stainless frame.
