Word on the Street is the DWX is for real…

[Reinz]

Looks like DW finally has the DWX ready for production, just in time for Shot Show.

As far as ship dates, I hope it’s soon!

Just saw a YouTuber with one. Sorry, don’t know how to post that.

 

[Reinz]

Supposedly Clay Shooters Supply had them in stock at $2099. I just checked and they are sold out.

 

[drband]

I don’t see a new YouTube video. No where is n stock. Believe it when I see one n person.

Looks a lot like a CZ Orange target.

 

[sevt_chevelle]

Both Dan Wesson and CZ USA just posted new teaser trailers on Fakebook. No release date yet.
The DW website previously removed the DWX from the lineup, it's now back.

I've been waiting for this pistol for 3 years, am buying the first one I see

Not even close.
Cz 75 frame with 1911 fire controls.

Just got this email, looks like they’re shipping now

 

[mljdeckard]

After a ridiculous wait, yes, it looks like it is shipping. I'm just glad it's happening, word on the street was that it was permanently dead.

Be careful of all the scam sights supposedly selling them.

Definitely a lot of scam DW sites.

No optic cut, jeeze. Looks like my Orange and Staccatos are safe.

Yeah, they are missing the boat by not offering optic ready.

But then, that me be the plan for increased sales down the road.

 

[1KPerDay]

I'm pumped. However, if you're going to delay like 3 years, at least figure out an optics cut in the meantime and include it.

For any interested:

 

[sevt_chevelle]

Supposedly an optic ready model will be released in second quarter 2023.

One thing I didn't know is that the DWX is a modular design. The fcu is serialized. Kinda cool but highly doubt different grip modules would ever be produced.

 

[BreechFace]

I'll be buying the first optic ready DWX I can find next year. They'll have all the kinks (if there is any) worked out by then as well.

I am not quite sure why this is appealing. I like classic CZ-75s and I like classic 1911s, but separately.

For me this is very appealing, not much of a fan of the 1911, 7-8 rounds in a handgun that size doesn't appeal to me.

But combining the CZ75 features and a 1911 trigger with a 15-19 round capacity in 40s&w or 9mm respectively, and that's something.

I can see myself with a Dan Wesson DWX in 9mm and 10mm (if they so choose to chamber it in 10mm).

Huh

The ergos of a CZ 75 with the best pistol trigger ever designed while holding 19rds.
Am surprised it's taken 100 plus years for someone to manufacture a pistol with a 1911 trigger that isn't a 1911.

This thing has my 2011 purchase on the back burner.

 

[JR24]

Only almost 3 years too late for me to be interested anymore.

EDC X9 fills that niche just fine.

Yes, that would. Those are nice! But you'll still buy one...

You’re probably right

Absolutely would have one if they’d come out when they said they would, just got tired of waiting.

Well your X9 I'm sure is a sweet shooter, it has a lot going for it.

Huh is right...

I have no complaints about the cocked & locked SA trigger on my CZ-85B. In fact, it's safety works pretty much like a 1911 safety.

I guess different strokes for different folks.

 

[Mauser lover]

I wish they had kept the CZ inside-out slide. The CZ frame keeps my grubby little paws off the slide much better than a 1911 frame, and I have no problems racking the shorter slide. I understand that some do.
