DWAS has morphed over to 1911- 45s also. I cant find any info on this one, but it shoots great, looks sharp, and is pretty unique. Pointman 7  Production date is 2008.   Does anyone know about this model ?? ThanksIMG_2614-1.JPGImage Enlarger

That would be a great question for the Dan Wesson group at 1911forum.com

A PM-7 deuce.  Looks nice.  What info are you looking for?  It was probably ordered in that configuration, I don't know if they offered them to the general public like that or not back in 08.

Anything worth doing is worth doing well.

If that is all original finish, it is more likely to be a PM-GD (not PM7), and as Chris noted Guardian Deuce, which is a much less commonly seen model than PM-7

I went to a bookstore and asked the saleswoman "Were is the Self Help Section?" She said if she told me, it would defeat the purpose.

Thanks for the ideas.   I spent more research time online  and found that they made 25 of these two tone in 2008. The model was 01975 and described as a Pointman 7 with  Titanium frame with polished black duty coat slide. Retail was $1024 and buds had one for $974. But mine has different front sight with black slide stop and safety ?

I guess there is always some mystery with Dan Wessons. This gun is a tack driver with a fantastic trigger....so thats good.

Really nice looking gun. A fair number of years ago I bought what I thought was a PM 7, turns out it was actually a PM1-S, a fairly limited production gun set up for IDPA competition in the Major category.

Easily the most consistently accurate centerfire auto I have ever owned, shown here with the very rare LB 1911 grips

Steve,

Its fun when a purchase turns out to be a surprise in a good way. Those are good looking grips ! Is it wrong to desire some genuine ivories for a DW  Valor with black duty treat ? They have such a unique feel and look.

Keith Lawton was kind enough to fill me in on the specifics of my PM-7 two tone. It has a Match barrel barrel, even though its not specifically stamped, and is one of a few that CZ sent out to a  company to have a  special Titanium  coating applied to the frame. They thought a few limited edition guns would generate increased  sales and interest for the Pointman series. It sold me !   He felt a production number of about 25 was in the ballpark  range-time    Hugelk
