Both Dan Wessons are gone and I chose to keep the Colt. Aside from the crap fitting of their thumb safeties, the fit and finish on the current production Colts are perfectly fine and likely much better than some of the late 70's series pistols. If I were in the market for an entry level 1911 chambered in .45, I'd look hard at a Competition. The chances that you'd need to involve Colt customer service on a 1911 would be minimal. If stories of Colt customer service worries you, take a minute to research Dan Wesson's ongoing issues with galling on their stainless models.</p></blockquote><p></p>
