Dan Wesson Specialist 1911 10mm Pistol – 5″ Barrel, Optics Ready, Night Sights, 8rd

The Dan Wesson Specialist in 10mm Auto is a premier 1911-style pistol built for serious shooters, law enforcement professionals, and personal defense applications. Chambered in the hard-hitting 10mm Auto cartridge, this optics-ready handgun delivers exceptional performance backed by Dan Wesson’s legendary hand-fit craftsmanship and match-grade precision.

Featuring a 5-inch match-grade barrel with a hand-fitted slide, frame, and barrel assembly, the Specialist is engineered to deliver tight tolerances and outstanding accuracy right out of the box. The optics-ready slide is milled to accept a wide range of red dot and reflex sights, giving you a clear path to a modern, customized sight picture. Fixed Novak-style snag-free tritium night sights are included as standard, ensuring low-light readiness whether or not you add an optic.

The Specialist’s ergonomics are purpose-built for control and comfort. Front cocking serrations, a 25 LPI flat mainspring housing, and 25 LPI front strap checkering combine to deliver a secure, repeatable grip. Textured G10 grips further enhance handling under demanding conditions. The undercut trigger guard and recessed slide stop provide a higher, more consistent grip index, while the ambidextrous manual thumb safety and grip safety make this pistol equally accessible for left- and right-handed shooters.

A full-length 1913 Picatinny accessory rail on the dust cover enables attachment of weapon lights or lasers, expanding your tactical versatility. The beveled magazine well and extended magazine release allow for fast, positive reloads—critical when every second counts. The tactical skeletonized hammer and inverted rib add refined aesthetics and functional refinement to an already well-appointed platform.
