    That's a beautiful gun, don't give it an inferiority complex saying it ain't much to look at. Positive reinforcement ya know. Behave and shoot straight or I'm buying a Colt.

      This is a collector's item, A Dan Wesson Pistol Pack, with 8", 6", 4", and 2.5" barrels. The former owner said he had never shot it, and I believe the original owner must have shot it very little. I've not shot it either. A wonderful example of the products produced by the original Dan Wesson Company in Monson, Mass.

        I had that same exact pistol pack once upon a time. I regret trading it every single day. Traded for a 03-A3 custom match rifle. Still have it and love it but sure would like to still have the Dan Wesson.

          Pretty is as pretty does. Pretty to me is one ragged hole in the center of the target at 25 feet with no malfunctions. I've always been more concerned with how a woman or a gun takes care of me than I am about cosmetics. Having said that, I don't abuse them either.
          Never trust anyone who doesn't trust you to own a gun.

            Bawanna, the Kimber is an excellent shooter, quite accurate. No malfinctions so far. I'm really pleased with it. Also really pleased with the trade I made to get it. One of these days I'd like to send to to Robar and get it treated with Roguard or NP3, or else get a new slide for it with the internal ejector. I think a new stainless steel slide on it would really make it a nice looking gun.

              I agree with the CZs. It is one sweet shooter and the Polished Stainless 75B is the next gun on my very long list. According to my FFL and to CZ, they should be available the end of May.

                  Looks like they changed the beaver tail on it.
                  To be sure of hitting the target, shoot first and call whatever you hit the target.

                    If a gun's not pretty we need to make it that way. Now let's define "Pretty"

                    Pretty:
                    1. Looks really nice and you would be willing to take it home to mother.
                    or
                    2. Well, she may not look "show off" good but she is functional and knows how to perform. Your friends would know why you picked her too....
                    The only thing better than having all the guns and ammo you'd ever need would be being able to shoot it all off the back porch.

                    Want to see what will be the end of our country as we know it???

                      There is an innate beauty in form, function and performance.

                      Also,
                      I don't have friends and had to be forced to let any girl meet my parents.

                                She might be a little to blingy for my taste, but I can see how some would like that finish. Sights might be a little hard to pick up a a sunny day. Know matter what finish is on the CZ it's still gonna shoot reliably and accurately. I'm always amazed by how much they cost and how well the parts of a CZ pistol fit each other for that amount. Great QC. If I buy another CZ it will more than likely be the PO-1. I really like that pistol. All my future 9mm buys though and on what stays in my possession and what goes will depend on how I like the XD slim 9mm when it comes out. Lately though I've been on a rifle kick,and Harley riding, and in no hurry to do anything as far as future pistol purchases. Life is good.
