Very nice! What made your decision on the WC grip panels? I can picture it with some exotic dark/black wood grips.

RZ, I saw this posted on 1911forums and have enjoyed looking at the pics twice now - very nice! Looking forward to a range report.

I had them. I have a set of Buckey burl on order for it.
Thanks, hopeful soon. I'm away at training right now.

Nice firearm. I really like 1911s in 10mm.

Congrats

A nice pistol, that's for sure!  I have 2 of the standard run of the mill RZ-10's and they definitely take a back seat to that one.

Having spend a fair amount of time fitting parts to 1911's, I have to admit I am amazed when I see workmanship like this.  The contour of the grip frame in relation to the thumb safety lower radius is always an area I really struggle.  Three parts that have to be joined there are the thumb safety, grip safety and frame.  And the dimensions for fitting them and looking/feeling good are a real struggle, at least for me.

A true work of art!

Nice RZ!!! Makes me wish I never sold mine.... (I had a 2006 CZ-DW RZ w/ ramped barrel).  It was a great pistol but I ended up selling it to fund another project.... one that I still own.  ;) 

DW is the best value in factory 1911 a guy can get ... and apparently their custom shop is no joke!

Nice pistola!

Dan Wessons have the advantage of customization.

Got the factory .40 conversion and it runs great. Great guns no doubt.
