I picked up a new Dan Wesson Pointman Carry .45 yesterday (my 7th Dan Wesson 1911). I inspected it with the sales staff, it appeared to be range-ready (it didn't appear to be dry, as I got some oil on my fingers when working the action), so I took it to the range. It shoots great and feels wonderful in my hands. I really like Dan Wesson pistols.
Unfortunately, it locked up tight after the 6th round. Dan Wesson responded to my on-line warranty claim at 6:30 this morning, and the gun is going back today, but I'm disappointed, to say the least. (Dan Wesson is already blaming me, without even seeing the gun.)
Here is the video of my experience:
Thoughts and comments from those with more experience are appreciated. (I only have 45 1911 pistols and I'm not a 1911 armorer, so I certainly don't have all the answers.)
