The Dan Wesson V-Bob delivers precision-grade 1911 performance in a compact commander-size frame, combining match-grade accuracy with reliable duty specifications. This stainless steel pistol features a 4.25-inch match barrel and ambidextrous controls for enhanced versatility.
What Makes This Different
The V-Bob stands apart from standard 1911s through its duty-serrated slide surfaces and match-grade barrel construction. While typical production 1911s rely on basic barrels, this model incorporates precision-fitted components that maintain tighter tolerances. The stainless steel construction provides superior corrosion resistance compared to carbon steel alternatives, extending service life in harsh conditions.
Key Features

The 4.25-inch barrel length optimizes velocity while maintaining manageable overall dimensions for concealed carry or duty use.
