The long-time flagship of the Dan Wesson line returns in glorious form! With a bevy of changes, the Valor now features a Stan Chen SI magwell, tapered grip and a tactical ambidextrous safety. The new style slide stop is recessed, allowing for the use of laser grip panels.

Sitting atop the slide are a serrated U-notch rear sight and a front tritium with a large orange ring, while GI-style cocking serrations give it a classic look. It's new inset serrations not only knock down any glare from the top of the slide - they also look great!

The stainless-steel slide and frame of the Valor can be had in a bead-blasted finish or black Duty Coat - a bonded finish that makes the stainless even hardier.
