Dan Wesson V-Bob 45 ACP 4.25 in Two-Tone Pistol
About this product
The Dan Wesson V-Bob is a commander-size 1911-style pistol designed for discreet carry while retaining the fit and finish associated with the Valor line. Chambered in .45 ACP, it uses a match-grade 4.25 inch barrel and a bobbed mainspring housing to reduce overall profile for easier concealment. The pistol pairs a forged stainless frame with a two-tone slide finish that combines corrosion-resistant surfaces and a hard Duty Coat on the slide. Controls include an ambidextrous thumb safety, a grip safety, and a recessed slide stop to accommodate laser grip panels.
