CZ 1911 query

Are all CZ 1911 now Dan Wesson versions, or are there "non Dan Wesson" 1911....I would have sworn there used to be?

CZ built a limited run of CZ 1911 pistols. That was a couple of years ago. Beyond that they are going to be Dan Wesson.

It was made by Dan wesson who is owned by CZ. Made 2000 IIRC. A bit of a test to see if DW could make cheaper 1911's. The one I shot was excellent. Now theres the DW A2 models.

I own one. They are great guns. My only complaint is the sights, but it's meant to be as period as they could get. No MIM parts.

I missed out.

it's a great 1911 and excellent base for a custom built.

The Dan Wesson is an excellent gun, but I figured the "CZ" only gun was maybe not as pretty, but everyone loved them. Guess I will have to save my nichols and dimes...

You didn't miss nothin'. They'll be back. The DW A2's are also pretty sweet, and similar. Ask DW to put on the CZ sights and it's the same pistol.

It is reported they built 1000 of them.
