It’s good it’s in the owner’s manual because [USER=51533]@Reedman[/USER] you are the first person who’s admitted to reading the manual. The people that have mentioned it seem really disappointed that the most durable finish available discolors if you use the wrong solvent. I don’t think it’s too much of a stretch for people to believe that the meaning of durable includes against solvents. Kroil isn’t exactly one of those products you run down to your local store to buy, and lots of people use cheap stuff like brake cleaner on their firearms or, just might plain forget and grab the wrong product. It happens. Also, feeding and extraction issues being blamed on ammo is suspect. Since you don’t elaborate on what specific malfunctions or ammunition you were using, I’m going to say that there’s at least a chance that your Valor does have issues that go beyond the ammo. You experience is no more or less valid than that of others who have also purchased Dan Wesson 1911s. I’m glad you are happy with your Valor.   [USER=24]@JD8[/USER] no doubt there is much rumor and conjecture out there. It does appear that there have been changes to the organization and it’s probably just going through the pains of reorganization,  consolidation of products, and elimination of products that are not profitable.</p></blockquote><p></p>
