I picked up a 9MM Dan Wesson TCP yesterday afternoon. One of those deals that occasionally falls in your lap. Didn’t really want or need it but the price was right.

It’s a 2018 gun. Doesn’t look like it’s been fired much at all. Came with the box and documents and a couple of extra Chip McCormick magazines. I think the sights were swapped out with Novak’s.

I’m thinking about changing out the grips with Rail Scales or VZ’s, probably change out the rear sight and MSH/magwell.

Going down the TCP review Rabbit Hole now. Anyone know about these things, any issues or concerns I should be worried about?

I have one in 9mm. It's the most comfortable gun I own, in terms of how it feels in the hand.

The only issue I have with mine is that the mag catch is a bit grabby. I basically have to pull the magazine out of the pistol, particularly if it's empty and there's no weight to it.

I had the same issue on another Wesson and it just requires a bit of reshaping.

Congrats on your new TCP Mike Stevens. My 9 mm DW's ate up every brand of factory FMJ I fed them except for Magtech and Sig. If in doubt, do a plunk test before you buy a large quantity of ammo.

Other than that, if you have not owned a DW in Duty Finish, you may want to read the manual for specific clean / lube / break-in instructions.

Good luck and let us know how it goes.

Amazing. My TCP is in flight right now waiting to receive it. I picked up a 45 "Blem". Will inspect and decide at that point. From photos.. What Blem? If mechanical problems do come up, I just want it handled. Finish meh... Looking to carry if all checks out. One question for everyone. Given a choice between a TCP or a Bul Armory Commander. Which way would you go?
