Noticed a lot of new members over the last several months. Thought it may be kind of fun to see how many attributes we can come up with;

The question would be, what things about a Dan Wesson make it stand out from other revolvers? Let's make it more interesting, from other guns?

I'll start with the interchangable rear blades on the rear sight; narrow notch or standard on the wheel guns. 

What else? They can be either a positive or negative feature. Who's going to be the last man standing?goodluck

A very positive feature: Interchangeable barrels. Here's an example of my .44 mag collection with a few VH COMP:

Interchangeable front sight blades, and of course, those rear blades can be had with or without a white line in both widths.

These are good things.

Y'all know I just had to.  The one piece grip allows for endless grip styles and designs. Much more adaptable than the two piece type. cool

Single action trigger pull, or should I say "hammer release".

We must not forget superb accuracy, adjustable barrell / cylinder gap and durability that is the envy of all other DA revolver makers.  All IMHO anyway laugh
