    Just got a Ruger SR1911. I will post some pics after work (probably not a great idea to whip it out and start taking pics in front of some of the “woke” people I have to work with). Got it from a gentleman on gun trader, and I had to run and meet him before work. Has some nice aftermarket grips, but I am definitely ordering some of the Ruger grips. The “AR bug” took most of my money in 2019, hoping the “1911 bug” doesn’t hit me too hard in 2020!

    The Valor and V-Bob lines have been updated and is back on the market this year.

    DW also will be releasing some fugly contraption that looks like a CZ mated with a mongoloid single-action hammer fired pistol.

    I have been following this "New" release. CZ owns DW now.

    I love a good challenge. I just got this in a trade from a friend. I have been looking for a project to build an EDC that I would not flip out if I lost it to the locals evidence locker. They have a shit rep for taking care of and even returning your fire arm.

    I fit up all the stainless controls for this about 5 years ago from bits and pieces I had in the extra parts box. Smoothed out the trigger. It has been in the mans safe ever since I believe. I will follow up as this progresses.
    It begins....
    Yup she is a turd...

    The DW Valor 10mm V-Bob Commander is calling my name.
    Have you fellas looked into the Standard offerings. Fit/finish/reliability are on par with any DW I have ran/fondeled.

    I have 2 of them.
    I put the pimp grips on this one. The pics do not show how stellar the Bluing really is.

    The High Nickel finish is amazing. The gun is a jewel right out of the box. I put these grips on it.

    I fondled a case hardened one last year. Seemed nice enough fit/finish. I felt it was priced above DW for one of the similar limited edition case hardened Valors though.

    But then I ended up with Wilson Combat. Go figure.

    I admit I have an in with a supplier and maybe the price points are diff. up this way. The case hardened offering to me is over priced. Not a fan of the finish but it is well done.

    There’s that, too. I get the CZ/DE law enforcement/military discount.
    I have several CZ's. All are Cajun-ized and run like swiss watch's. Also a CZ A-2.
    A good friend of mine locally is nicknamed the wizard for the magic he can work on a CZ. I do his 1911's and he loves on my CZ's.
