Item # 128846 Style DNW-01890 UPC 806703018904 Condition New Manufacturer [Dan Wesson](https://www.kygunco.com/brand/dan-wesson) Model Specialist Commander Round Capacity 8 Caliber 45 ACP Action Semi-Auto Barrel Length 4.3 in When police departments approached Dan Wesson to build them a more reliable, durable 1911 to replace the ones they had been carrying, they developed a model just for them. The additions that made it ideal for law enforcement also make it perfect for home defense, so they gladly offer it for sale to the public. A full-size 1911, the Specialist Distressed is chambered in .45 and loaded with features to satisfy a public servant’s special requirements. 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. 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 two-piece magwell, the Specialist 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 and is available in Dan Wesson's distressed Duty Black finish. 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. Otherwise identical to the standard Specialist, this Distressed version has a hand-weathered frame and slide. **Specifications:** - SKU: 1890 - Model: Specialist Commander Black - Caliber: 45 ACP - Magazine Capacity: 8 - Frame Material: Forged Stainless - Slide Finish: Duty Finish - Grips: G10 - Overall Length: 8 in - Barrel Length: 4.25 - Width: 1.45 in - Weight: 40 oz - Trigger Mech: Single Action - Front Sight: Fixed Night Sight - Rear Sight: Tactical Night Sight - Safety: Ambi thumb safety, grip safety ** WARNING: This product contains chemicals known to the State of California to cause cancer, birth defects, or other reproductive harm.
