I didn't go through the whole thread yet, got to go back and read it through. Was searching for CZs and found the DWX for $1500ish. Not sure if they actually had them for sale yet, if it was a tease. Think it was the compact version.
Actually spaced it off till I saw this thread. It was some online gun sales site. So fingers crossed. Will read thread from start to finish. Sorry if I stole someone's thunder.

No need to read through the entire thread, most of these deals expire. Also, the DWX won't actually hit the market until sometime next year. . .we hope.

That's what I thought but it was there, with a price tag. I'll go back through my history and bookmarks. Will post it no matter what it is. I looked at it drooling, mouth agape. Saying crap, crap, crap, because it's out of my price range.
-
Ok I found it. Completely by accident.

I have no idea why it's listed already. Nice price.

"Out of Stock"
must be their way of taking pre-orders?

So how many of you have your deposits in? Are you getting FS or compact? Read a post in the DWX thread about availability of improvement parts. Wonder if like most things, once it becomes popular that there will be more available for the DIYer.

It appears the guns share parts with CZ as well as 1911's so there are already some parts available. At the price point these guns will hit the shelves at I would hope they don't need much improvement. My 3 Dan Wesson 1911's are the only 1911's of many I've owned that didn't come out of the box in need of something.

Yes, but it also says that there are proprietary parts specifically made to be unique to the DWX.

Not available, but another price point of reference.

Brownell's was taking back orders so I put in mine. Hopefully it doesn't get cancelled.

The good thing is that stores are starting taking back orders, which means production is in progress :D
I'm waiting for DWX-C-9MM .. this one will be my "1911 for lefty" 8)

I wish I was there this year...

I haven't seen anything for an expected release date yet. Where did you get the May timeframe from? I have my dealer on alert to get one if as soon as they become available from one of his distributors.

A FS in 9mm would be sweet but I don't compete so too much money for a range toy for me.
-
Next few months seem to be hard for me... I'm usually a patient person, but really fidgety now thinking about DWX Compact. O0
I love CZ75 Compact, I love 1911, I'm lefty.... Looks Dan Wesson has listened my prayer ;D
This product is JUST FOR ME 8) :) ;D :P :-*

Do you know if this is the estimate for all models or just FS .40?
I preordered a 9mm compact w/ rail through CZ first responder program just today. May seems so far away.

The May time estimate was provided before I ordered. That may mean all are shipping at the same time, but I don't have confirmation on all of the variants.

The last update pushed it to June, but that was before the full covid hit. I think I posted that in one of the discussions here.

Sooo is there actually a available date for the DWX? I am about to pull the trigger on a new gun and would love the next to be the DWX but can't find ANY info on WHEN. Currently own a Specialist 45acp Duty Finish and am awaiting delivery of a Pointman 45 on Monday. Love the DW products but it looks like a CZ AccuShadow 2 is going to be next up. Shooting USPSA Single Stack and want to move into Open and try out IDPA so I've been looking around for a new Competition Gun. Any suggestions on alternative firearms would be appreciated.

According to online reports, the NYSSR is one of the states which completely shut down gun shops and manufacturers. That will put them at least a month or two behind schedule.

I’d love to have the compact but at $1700-$1800 that’s a LOT of money for one gun. But it’s so freakin tasty though. :o 8)

Comparing to cost of WC EDC X9... fair price for me. Not mentioning other high quality 1911 style handguns.
However I feel discriminated a little.. why I'm able to choose from hundreds of 1911 models which fit right handed shooter, but have only few option for lefties and have to pay $3,000 or more... :'(
And I'm talking about one small piece only - release button on other side... :-X

No kidding. I was really excited about the EDC X9 when it was announced, but my interest in it died when I found that Wilson couldn't even bother to design a reversible mag catch. The fact that the DWX is actually lefty-friendly, and the fact that it's half the price of the Wilson is awesome - still a pretty expensive gun, but probably worth it.
-

No ... I don't want and I won't spend $3K :D
So far my Rock Island 1911 works great, however sometimes my thumb is searching for the button ;D
I'm hoping to have DWX-C... so my dreams end up below $2,000 ::)

I was looking for reversible mag release button for 1911, but all manufacturers dropped this idea few years ago.
Cabot Guns makes 1911 for lefties... but 45ACP only, 10 months waiting time and $5K :-X - end of the story....
Wilson Combat would be my choice, EDC X9 has perfect ergonomics and mag release button on regular side works quite good... but price is too high.
CZ75 Family seems to be natural path to have 100% left handed handgun which is close to 1911... and now DWX is the ideal option for me. And I'm willing to pay this price for it.

The DWX in .40 might be as close as I get to a new CZ in .40 :'( :'(

They are nice but super pricey! The first responder discount on the DWX makes it very attractive. I’m also hoping that the glut of TSO’s in .40 and the release of the DWX might drive price of TSO down.

How much is their pricing with their Mil/LE/First responder discount? I already have a TSO and Czechmate so the DWX is a nice addition for competition.

Don’t worry. I’m retired military and already have an account with them. They have a copy of my retired military ID and other pertinent info. However, I heard they revamped their website and have not logged in since 2018.
I guess I have to log in and get a new password.
Thanks anyway.

Funny you should mention that.
I signed up on this forum today to learn more about the DWX. The very first thread I hit was this one.
I see your pistol... I'm thinking... "I've seen that before somewhere". Then I see your username. ;D
You can probably guess who I am from "that other place".

Anybody with anything new to report on availability?
Thanks,

I believe it has already been said they likely won't hit the shelves till next spring at the earliest now.

Has Dan Wesson re-opened for business yet? Kommandant Kuomo of the NYSSR shut down all of the gun businesses as part of virus overreaction plan.

Right?! You can hit up a liquor store or strip club but don’t even think about going to church or doing anything reasonable.

I’m ready for Dan Wesson to release this thing. I’m pretty happy with my sao shadow2 but the dwx has caught my interest for awhile now.

Looking forward to buying this pistol in 2022 O0.

In 2019 I was reading DWX as something eXtra, eXceptional...
Being closer to 2021 I know the real meaning was "mysterious X"... something that may never see mass production... :o ::) :-X

If Dan Wesson won't make this handgun next year... I'm gonna competently turn away from CZ / DW.... :-\
DWX supposed to be my No1.... now this place was taken by M&P :-X
-
I’m pretty sure cz/dan Wesson has been in the middle of a move. This and them being shut down has probably put a hard stop on their production.

Dan Wesson is based in New York state while CZ is in Kansas City Kansas. Dan Wesson is getting hammered by the continuing draconian restrictions in NY.

They haven't even broken ground on the new facility, so no moving happening.

I just spoke to CZ yesterday as I go thru MIL/LEO sales. I have a DWX compact on order and no update at all on shipping those, probably first quarter next year at best...

The TS2 will probably be available way before the DWX.

Wow! Is that USD or Either Canadian or Aussie dollars? If that’s USD, that’s the Czechmate pricing territory but you’ll get more (2 barrels, red dot, big stick to name a few).
Either way, yeah it’s expensive.

The price will go down a bit if the Shadow 2 OR is an indicator. It was priced higher in Europe compared to the US market price.

Nice! Looking forward to reading your thoughts on the Staccato.

Well my Pointman 45 came in today-YAY. Ordered it 2 months ago, but I ordered a PM9 at the same time and nothing about that yet. The store owner is waiting for a DWX for himself and he hasnt heard anything so far.
-
Nice! Looking forward to reading your thoughts on the Staccato.
It's coming to FFL on Tuesday. New IL law doesn't allows me to do all paperwork before it arrives, so my guess is I'll have to wait another 3 days once my background check passes.
I'll let you know guys when I do first shooting and will create new thread about it. I don't want to mess up firearms here.

I saw an update on BEnos. Not good news, and no date.

I was on the Dan Wesson site and it looks like the DWX is now available. $1909.
I put one in the cart “for fun” and no backorder was indicated.
Just wondering if it’s finally ready to go?

What DW site? You can't order guns directly from DW, or most US manufacturers really, as a retail customer. The DWX is not shipping yet, though there is hope it will be later this year.
EDIT - As a reference here is the Dan Wesson website = https://danwessonfirearms.com/
-
The site I was on was danwessonfirearmstore.com Try it. I put one in the cart and was ready to check-out.
I know they can’t sell directly but through a ffl?

they list the discontinued 715 (last produced in 2019 and fully sold out before the year's production began), their website has no phone number, no actual mailing address and their "contact us" page opens a map of San Diego. I'm going to say "probably not a real Dan Wesson company store".

Has there been any movement on the new DW 1911?
That red gripped 1911 is hot and has my name on it....:-l

Nope no movement. Holding your breath for the DWX will only cause you to turn blue.

My guess is, we still have to enjoy this video only for next 8 - 10 months...

So disappointing this is still not available... I've been tempted by the Staccato while waiting for the DWX...

I'm already sold to Staccato line. Even I like DW pistols, I'm not waiting another 2 years. :-[
I'm enjoying Staccato C2 DPO as my carry handgun now. 8)

That's great! I wish the mags didn't cost $70+, but the gun itself is fantastic.

Yeap, that's true.
Thx God mag for Staccato R is cheap - it's a regular 1911 mil spec product.
C2 on the other hand... ::) ... but fortunately it comes with 3 mags. So far I've never needed more.

I’ll never own any gun made by STI/Staccato. For the price they charge, I’d rather have one custom made by reputable gun smiths.
There’s a reason they change their name.

STI cost me $1,999, then the same firearm under Staccato name cost me $1,999.... Huge price change... :)
Yes, they make more expensive versions... but it seems to be a common practice for every manufacturer....

You need to go to a competition shooters forum like the Enos forum so you can read up on STI/Staccato warranty service.
By the way, as long as you’re happy with it, that’s all that matters. Hopefully it’ll last awhile without the slide cracking O0.

Interesting feedback.
I've never looked into a custom smith to build a double stacked 9mm. Not sure what that would cost.
I heard they changed their name because they have shifted from custom competition guns to duty guns.
With the custom guns people run their guns extremely hard (100k+ rounds), customize them like crazy and it made warranty a large undertaking.
Nevertheless, I've had the opportunity to handle and shoot a Staccato P Duo. I love the gun. Super accurate. Fit and finish is awesome. It does make me wonder what a custom smith would produce as it's hard for me what I'd get for the same price. But then I've never researched what $2400 will get me.

You need to go to a competition shooters forum like the Enos forum so you can read up on STI/Staccato warranty service.
By the way, as long as you’re happy with it, that’s all that matters. Hopefully it’ll last awhile without the slide cracking O0.
Yes, I know... but I'm not competition shooter. These are my a defensive tools.
As Underwhere mentioned - STI was more competition firearm company. Staccato focuses on duty pistols.
So far guys from U.S Marshal SOG don't complain on the firearm's quality. I'm counting on their words. :)
Anyway... this thread is about DWX.... but .... there is no DWX yet... :-\ O0

so, when exactly are the dwx pistols coming out?

That's unfortunate, as I find myself with a hankerin' for a new race gun, I love 1911's, and one of the best targets I ever shot was with a friend's CZ-75B. So the DWX looked like it might be my dream pistol. Plus red is my favorite color ;D

But unfortunately life is brutal and we cannot have everything we dream about.
Hopefully you are patient enough.... otherwise go with 2011. You can replace a grip module for a red one. ;)

I know, right? First world problems (https://www.LinxNet.com/misc/smilies/lol.gif)

Problem there is, with nothing coming out of CZ/DW even hinting at a possible availability time-frame, I've no idea how patient I'll have to be.
I went through something similar after the EOTech thing. After sending my EOTech optics back I waited and waited and waited and waited for Vortex to get their new holographic site to market. When they finally did it was, to me, a massive disappointment. I'm disinclined to fall into that trap again.
... otherwise go with 2011. You can replace a grip module for a red one. ;)
Heh. Not certain what I'm going to do at this point.
I may just talk to my local "1911 guy," ask him "If you were going to build a 1911 race gun on a budget, what would you start with?" Get that, have him tune it, add extended controls, and a Stan Chen mag well funnel.
Or get a CZ TS 2 and replace the blue grip panels with red ones :)

This thread started in early 2019 and it's now the end of 2021. I wish DW would at least communicate something with the market. I'll even take another teaser at this point. I just want to feel like they are still engaged and moving forward, even if it's slower than I like.

Wow, this thread has been dragging along for over two years.....and still no DWX Compacts shipped??
Has anyone actually received a production DWX Compact?? (besides marketing samples)
Maybe it got sucked down into the Colt vortex.
Maybe we'll hear something at Shot 2022??
Oh Pleeease.
-
They haven't been seen in the wild yet. Who knows maybe this year. Maybe never.
-
I think we'll still see the DWX released at some point - I haven't given up hope. Honestly, it's still about the only 9mm pistol that has my interest st this point.
-
I'm wondering it they present it again at SHOT Show this year.... O0

I agree everything on the market now is so run of the mill I'd be hard pressed to buy anything new at this point. The DWX would be a nice deviation from the boring norm.

On the Dan Wesson site, they said the DWX is all but dead.
We likely won't ever see this pistol, it's a total shame. I waited 2 years for the DWX, I'll be getting staccato instead.

;) I did that decision long time ago... No regret at all. 8)
Wilson Combat is also good option with several amazing handguns.

I just read what they added to the DW website. When they say they are halting promotion of the DWX I think that's all we need to know to understand that the project is likely dead. I have to think there was/is some serious flaw that they have been unable to overcome and have given up. Many new products have come to market even with the obstacles created by the plandemic so what else could it be?

ColtX.... 8)

CZ/Dan Wesson always keeps me scratching my head. I have been waiting on the DWX as well. They even showed it again at SHOT Show again this year, and now it is gone from the website. Oh well I guess.

DW has trimmed down their line significantly from what it was just a few months ago. All of the Vigil series are gone, which is another head-scratcher, since my understanding is that they were pretty popular. Although it reinforces my working theory that they are pushing DW to be the higher-end 1911 manufacturer in the overall lineup by dropping their less expensive models, and positioning Colt to be the go-to 1911 maker in the $800-$1200 range.
-
I am guessing that some restructuring is going on for sure. I think that would be a good move making DW 1911s the higher end and offering Colt at a lower price range. I hope CZ gets back to that small company personal fell though. That is one of the things that drew me to them. They already wiped out thier LE/MIL program from what it was. They just don't need to lose focus on thier great customer service.
Hoping the DWX being dropped is just for a while and they will improve the design until re-release. Adding an optics cut would be a big plus. Found a few posts on a 1911 forum from people saying they have sources at CZ and this is just part of the restructuring process. People are saying they expected DW quality to improve the Colt name, but some are worried that Colt execs are in control and will bring down DW quality. I honestly do not see that happening. DW has built a trust worthy name and is known for quality. Even those that do not prefer a DW 1911 will always state they are high quality. Even saw a Wilson Combat video with Bill Wilson saying in that proce range a DW should be the number 1 choice.
-
Im still hoping for a DWX release as well... looks like it would be a great addition to the stable
-
I had one on hold for over a year and was finally told by the dealer it was dropped for production. Was not told if or when it will come back.
-
I received an email notification that Palmetto State Armory has the DWX 92001 in stock for $1999.

That is correct. I purchased one yesterday and they still have them available as of 7/28/23, but the price just jumped to $2099 on the PSA web site.
-
I paid $1930 plus tax from Tombstone a month ago or so.

I saw that, but I was too late in purchasing it before it was out of stock. I went ahead and paid the $1999 at PSA since I was not sure if I would see it available again any time soon.

My LGS was asking $2199 but I just looked again now and they dropped the price to $1999 and show to have 5+ in stock:

Any idea if they will ship out a .40 cal, suppose to be #92002? I haven't seen one on the market anywhere.

.40 version has not been released. It will probably be late this year at the earliest.

If anyone is looking for a DWX compact check KYGUNCO. They have it at $1805 which is the cheapest I've seen for the compact so far. I've got my order in and should receive it Wednesday.

I just looked at the site and I wouldn't do any business with them over the net after reading the reviews.

I've purchased from KYGUNCO several times and have never had a problem with them, but to each their own.

Just picked up my new DW DWX today. Beautiful pistol.
Ordered from KYGUNCO on August 4, and picked up today August 9. Fast shipping and excellent service from KYGUNCO.

I am waiting on the railed version. I have the DWX full size and have already tuned the trigger from 4lb 6oz to a 2lb 6oz trigger pull.

For anyone still looking for the DWX full size, I just got a back in stock email that I no longer need because I've already purchased one. It's a great price on a fantastic pistol.

It appears the DWX is becoming more available. I should have waited a few weeks before purchasing mine. I could have saved a few hundred, but I did not know if I would get the chance to get one at 2k anytime soon.

If saving money is the object, then yes, wait for the initial rush before you buy a new firearm offering.
But just think of all of the enjoyment you would have missed out if you had waited weeks or even months before making the purchase. Sometimes it is just best to bite the bullet and make the purchase, within reason of course.
I will sometimes do that on a brand new firearm offering, but I refuse to go over MSRP. All of the people with money to throw away can buy from Gunbroker as much as they want, but MSRP is my limit, and even then you can offset that by buying from places that offer free/reduced shipping cost and those that don't collect sales tax.

I waited about 7 or 8 months for them to ship again but I agree with you, rbuzz00, I am not paying over MSRP. There was several on gunbroker for as much as twice the MSRP!
I paid just under MSRP, $1930 and shipping was free. LGS took care of transfer and I didn't have to pay the fee if I bought $100 worth of merch so I bought a few mags for the DWX and the Berettas I own.
I sure enjoy shooting mine! I was at the range yesterday and I may try out a new indoor range later this week. It's pretty bleep hot down here in South Central Texas so by 1PM I am ready to get out of the heat.
This target from yesterday was at 7 yds. I probably spend about half my time at the 15 yd line now which is definitely helping with my accuracy.
