A full-size 1911, the DAN WESSON Specialist Commander Semi-Automatic Pistol is chambered in .45 or 9mm and loaded with features to satisfy a public servant's special requirements. The forged stainless steel slide wears their inverted top rib with a single amber tritium dot in the rear sight and a green lamp with white target ring in front.
The frame sports an integral 1913 Picatinny, 25 LPI front strap checkering, undercut trigger guard and recessed slide stop to enable the installation of laser grips. Equipped with an ambidextrous thumb safety, extended magazine release, and detachable magwell, the Specialist Commander is operator-friendly. It is finished off with a set of G10 VZ Operator II grips that force the hand into the beavertail and hold it there.
The Specialist ships with two 8-round magazines with bump pads (10 rounds in 9mm) and is available in either a matte stainless finish or the Dan Wesson's Duty Black finish, which makes for an especially hardy pistol that scoffs at everyday wear and tear. The forged stainless steel slide wears their popular Clark-style serrated rib with a single amber tritium dot in the rear sight and a green lamp with white target ring in front.
