The Dan Wesson Pointman Seven delivers match-grade accuracy in a California-compliant 1911 platform, combining traditional craftsmanship with modern manufacturing precision. This full-size 45 ACP pistol features a 5-inch stainless steel barrel and brushed stainless steel serrated slide that provides reliable cycling and enhanced grip during rapid fire sequences.
What Makes This Different
The Pointman Seven incorporates Dan Wesson's precision-fitted barrel and bushing system, delivering sub-2-inch groups at 25 yards out of the box. Unlike standard production 1911s, each frame undergoes individual hand-fitting to ensure optimal barrel-to-slide lockup. The extended beavertail grip safety and commander-style hammer reduce felt recoil while maintaining the classic 1911 trigger pull characteristics that competitive shooters demand.
Key Features

The stainless steel construction handles adverse weather conditions while maintaining accuracy standards required for USPSA competition and precision shooting applications.

Consistent lockup and precision manufacturing result in repeatable accuracy that holds zero through extended shooting sessions.
