Is the best gun of 2023 already here? The DWX is a mix between 2 of the greatest pistols ever made, the CZ 75 and the 1911.

Gun reviews for the people.

Looks good to me! But guessing I will never, ever have the extra money available to buy one...

= = =

Well, it is the best of 2023 so far.

But that’s like getting 100% on your first exam of the semester.

It can only go down.

$2000 price tag makes it not one of the best guns for me

unless he’s talking about the lockup, the outside is pure CZ75...

A new CZ-75 lists for $700. What makes this $1300 better?

This is a rough copy of a Tanfoglio Witness 9mm single action target pistol. The Italian made pistols run from $1000 to $5000 for competition ready pistols made for shooting bunches of cardboard people very, very, very fast.

Back in the 1990’s, I had a chance to buy a .38 Don Wesson revolver with four barrels with target sights and custom case for $400. Kick myself every time I think about it.

Does the Tanfoglio target pistol have a 1911-type trigger like the DWX? So far have not found any photos that show that...

Maybe that’s what was offered. It came in a metal case and had the 2”; 4”; 6” and 8” barrels.

It’s a double stack 1911/CZ hybrid.

I have both a CZ 75BD and a Dan Wesson Valor.

“$2000 price tag “
Same here.

Many other choices at that price range
