Our Assessment: This Dan Wesson Commander Classic Bobtail in stainless steel is a refined 1911 built with attention to detail and designed for comfortable carry and reliable performance. Chambered in .45 ACP and made in 2009, this model features a 4.25-inch barrel and an Ed Brown-style bobtail mainspring housing, which reduces printing when carried concealed while maintaining a full-size grip profile. The stainless steel frame and slide give the pistol a clean, polished look and excellent corrosion resistance. The traditional wood grips add warmth and classic styling to the otherwise modern and purposeful build.
This particular example is outfitted with a unique tritium night sight setup: a green front dot paired with two yellow rear dots. This configuration provides quick front-sight focus in low-light conditions, with just enough contrast between the dots to reduce visual confusion. The pistol maintains a classic 1911 trigger feel with a crisp, clean break and a solid thumb safety. Built with tight tolerances and high-end fit and finish, the Commander Classic Bobtail is a practical, elegant choice for those who appreciate the 1911 platform with enhanced concealability and timeless style.
