Just got my first Dan Wesson this past weekend. It's a model 15-2 with only 6" barrel. From research on this forum it dates back to 1977 I think.... Anyway, it has been well used it hose some bluing wear but looks overall very good. And shoots great. I don't like the original "target" grips they are too big for my hands, and I don't have small hands. I have bought some houge monogrip and can't wait to get home and put on and try out. I really want to get a 4" and a 8" EWK barrel assembly. I see he is sold out. Is he still making these? Do you think they will be available soon? I did email yesterday but haven't received a response. Thanks and am glad to be a part of this community.

Congrats on landing your first DW!occasion  There are some extra large factory grips out there. I got one a while back & my first thought was "dang, this is a BIG grip". My hands aren't small either, so it's not often that I run across a grip that's borderline massive.lol2 I bet you'll really like the Hogue.

welcomeaboard, show us somecool-pics if you can. We all love seeing new DW's.laugh

Welcome to the forum--you'll appreciate that smaller grip in comparison to the DW factory one.

Wisdom is merely the realization of how little one knows, therefore I am wise.

Welcome! I'm pretty new, too, and started with a 15-2 Pistol Pac, as well as a recently added 715.  You'll love these guns. They're wonderfully engineered and mighty fun to shoot.  But, you already knew that!

Best,

PCC

Thanka guys you've really made me feel welcome. I'll post pics as soon as I have a chance. Won't be today. I have put on hogue grips and man what a difference, I really love this gun. I shot it more today than my Smith 686.
