Thank you lots of input--Could the Valor be the way to go if funds are there? I wonder of there are 10 plus round magazines for it--Wilson combat.

Tripp Research makes some.  And I think they are now a Wilson company.

The Valor, absolutely, would get one in a heartbeat if I could justify it; bigger / other fish to fry at the moment

Of those mentioned the Valor is what I would get.

I handled a Specialist today and oh my.......

Chip McCormick was recently bought by Wilson but I think Virgil Tripp still owns Tripp Research.

Yep.  That is what I was thinking of.  So, still Tripp 10 rounders but not Wilson owned.

I know you listed specific models but have you given any thought to the Bruin?  The longer slide and sight base with increased velocity is a huge bonus.

I bought a Bruin earlier this spring. Amazing pistol and was my first Dan Wesson ever. Now I wonder why I waited so long to try a Dan Wesson.

Great input from all--decided to go with a 5 inch Stainless 10mm Valor--ill putt pics up after a test drive break in period

I have a Silverback and a Specialist Commander in 10mm. I do not have any experience with the Razorback or the Valor. I like the Silverback, except for one major issue. It doesn't have a rail for a weapon mounted light. That really sucks and is a major let down. If the Valor has a rail, I'd say get the Valor because it has a reputation of being one of Dan Wesson's best lines of 1911 pistol. I've read, and the price confirms it, that the Silverback is a better pistol than the Razorback. So, based only on the three choices you gave, I'd get the Valor or the Silverback depending on what you're looking for.

I'm hoping they make a 6" threaded barrel model in 10mm at some point.

They are coming out with the Kanati next year, it will be a 6" double stack 10mm with a threaded barrel.

Being a 6" double stack I would expect MSRP to be north of $2500.

It will be an enhanced Fury kind of, six inch long slide, threaded barrel, dust cover ramped (like the Bruin), Trijicon RMR type 2, suppressor sights, double stack 10mm 18+1 (with the mag extension, 16+1 normal) Ion bonded.

Yes, well north of $2500.

I have a Bruin and it is a 10+ on a scale of 10.  Incredibly accurate and mild to shoot.

The Valor is a great platform, but the other 2 models aren't even in the same league as the Bruin.
(Just my opinion)

Of course, I ain't carrying this beast  :)
