I have a few questions for any who might be familiar w/ Dan Wesson products/services available.
I recently purchased a DW A2 commander (new/retailer) and could almost not be happier. Truly love everything about it, save for a small issue(s). The thumb safety could stand to be blended more than it is. Protrudes and bites slightly. Not a huge issue as I can adjust my grip to avoid the bite but is annoying and Ive had far lesser 1911's where this wasn't an issue.
The recoil signature on this commander seems unusually "snappy". Ive had other commander, all steel and Officer sized, alloy and steel alike that didn't seem to have such an exaggerated snap.
Will DW re-blend/work my thumb safety. Either under warranty or paid services? How is their CS/Warranty services?
As far as the recoil issue, it is not something I would present to DW as an issue, I have a few ideas on how to mitigate..just wanted some feedback as to if anyone else has noticed this on this particular.
I was/am so happy with the A2 commander that I purchased a full size/govt'. I'd like some work done on this. Sights, flat MSH, high ride grip safety and maybe front strap checkering and or some combination of all that +/-.
Will DW perform this work, as paid services? If so, I am G2G with taht or would it be better advised to seek other services..NightHawk, WC or other recommended Custom Shops..?
Apologies if this is in the wrong section or if these or similar questions have been proposed prior. I also understand a phone call to DW could answer most of these questions but I thought Id ask the local junkies first..
Any insight would be most appreciated.
