Buds personnel are great to work with and are happy to help as always. My last Valkyrie 9mm review, I very satified with the way the gun handled so I decided to plunge into purchasing the 45ACP model. I went to the range with a friend and shot 250 rounds

The gun came flawless and in just (2) days to my FFL. I followed the DW break-in of 50 rounds FMJ then clean and repeat up until 300 rounds. Then I decided on 200 more FMJ and a complete strip down and deep clean. Then another 200 self-defense rounds. Bes

The workmanship on this pistol rivals Ed Brown, Nighthawk, and Wilson Combat. Dan Wesson is truly a bargain for the quality product you receive. My suggestion if you are waiting is to buy now. The Valkyrie is discontinued per the 2018 Dan Wesson Catalog.

It is a superb 1911 commander. I followed recommended break-in (almost, switched to HP a tad early) and was flawless in operation and very accurate. I can only compare to the 1911s I own or have owned (Springfield and Kimber) but the Valkyrie far exceeds

Outstanding firearm. The first 50 rounds I put through it were JHPs, and they ran like a dream. Out of all of the 1911s I handled/shot before deciding to purchase, Dan Wesson was easily the best fit, finish, and displayed the best overall attention to det

This is my 7th Dan Wesson and up front I admit that I am biased. For the money, in my opinion, for what it is worth, there is not a better choice than Dan Wesson. What keeps me buying D.W.'s is consistent build quality, beautiful finishes, reliability and
