The popular Bobtail Commander is now available in the Valor series in the form of the V-Bob. The Valor series is our flagship line, meaning it’s the best we have to offer. Frankly, we feel it is the best built production 1911 on the market.

The V-Bob is loaded with features, including a forged Bobtail frame with 25 LPI checkering front and back, an undercut trigger guard, tactical ledge night sights, VZ slim line G10 grips, EGW carry bevel bushings as well as our tool-steel fire controls and other premium small parts. Every piece that goes into the Valor series is hand-fit, polished and blended to provide you with not only the best functioning gun we can provide, but also the best looking.

The V-Bob  can be had with either a matte stainless glass bead finish or our super durable black Duty finish. This finish is a revolutionary treatment process that actually bonds to the components and creates a super-durable matte black skin. Our Duty Black finish beats any of the spray-and-bake finishes most companies use today, hands down. Our durability testing proves it and our customers love it – which is proof enough for us!

Most accurate of my non-custom 1911 pistols and just as accurate as my custom fitted pistol with match barrel. When I finally decide to stop carrying my Kimber Ultra Plus, I'll be switching to this V-Bob. It is heavier and so it's easier to shoot than the light 3" Kimber as well as being more accurate.

Great 1911. Buds was great at shipping and handling, and I had no problem with my FFL dealer (DTS Tactical Moss Bluff, LA). I have primarily used CCI Blazer 230 grain FMJ, and Federal 230 grain HST. The magazines it came with work great. I have also used cheap Rock Island Armory Magazines (8-round) with no issue in addition to some Wilson Combat mags. Shoots great, and the modifying the trigger reset is a breeze. Take down is typical of a 1911. I used it primarily for fun and concealed carry. Using a Black Rhino IWB holster with G-Code clips gives minimal if any print. As compared to polymer pistols, it can be slightly heavy. But that's the advantage of a 1911: if you run out of ammo, you can always beat the bad guy to death. TLDR Great 1911. Great Experience with Buds. Highly Recommend Purchase if you're looking for a self-defense/concealed carry pistol.

Flawless. Night sights are bright on this one, but I recall some others having issues with them being dim in the other reviews. As far as the gun itself, I lubed it up with some FP10 before taking it to its first range visit per the manual's instructions on break in. Brought a mixed lot of bottom of the barrel cheap old ammo with me, some steel case, some aluminum, some brass. Cleaned it after the first and second 50 rounds, and shot the rest without any cleaning. 1 failure to go into battery on the 3rd or 4th magazine. That's it. Shot amazingly well. The guy in the lane next to me asked if he could shoot a magazine through it, was very impressed with it as well. Apart from that, I'm a little sad to see that as of me writing this review (1 day after I picked it up) the price has dropped around $150. I could have put that to work on some more ammo and range time! Regardless, I highly recommend the valor lineup. I can't speak for other dan wesson 1911s, but from what I've heard you can't really go wrong with any of them.

This is my first 1911 purchase, Ive been sitting on the fence too long. The fit and finish are excellent. I can see myself purchasing future Dan Wessons. I'm still in the "break in" period and the only problem I've had has been some factory brass cases too long to chamber fully. I would have prefered two dot rear sight but that is just personal preference and the factory sights are acceptable. Checkering on front/back straps along with the grips give a very firm hold. Very happy with my purchase so far.

The VBob is an exceptional weapon, beautifully built. It has extremely close tolerances; it is hard to tell where the frame ends and the slide begins. I am very pleased with this 1911, its a keeper!

Received my new Valor and broke it in the same day. I can actually say it's the best firearm in my collection. Excellent weapon extremely accurate. I have purchased various firearms from Buds and they have by far the best prices around.

This is what first rate customer service looks like. I ordered on Saturday evening online with a question. I received update information the next day. I received a telephone response to my question first thing Monday morning. Order arrived on Thursday, a day earlier than projected. Excellent. I will update on the pistol later.

I picked up the VBob today. I brought it home, stripped it, cleaned it up, lubed it and loaded 10 mags and took it out for test fireing. I shot it at 10, 15 and 25 yards. The accuracy was good, and the trigger was crisp and light. On the Lyman digital scale the three pull average was 3.6#'s with no creep at all. I thought muzzle rise was noticably more than my 1911's with bull barrels and recovery not as quick but that could just be me. In 75 rounds I had 2 stove pipes and 2 failure to feed. I was useing the two DW mags, Kimbers and Wilson's. I had never used straight 8 sights before. I thought they worked well though as another review said the rear sight gap is a little wide and caused me some accuracy problems. Now that it is dark I notice that the sights aren't very bright, but not a big concern. I had one of these several years ago and really liked it and I think this one will grow on me more as I shoot it more. Bud's was good as usual and delivery was super fast. I ordered it at 3:45 P.M. yesterday and picked it up at about 3:00 P.M.today. This was the 84th gun I have bought from Bud's since 2009 and this was definetly the fastest delivery ever. Anyway, in my opinion, for what it is worth, this is a very nicely made pistol and worth the price if you like very well made and shooting 1911 style pistols.

Good gun, but not as accurate as I had expected / hoped. I have also had a few reliability issues (1 or 2 per 100 rounds, so nothing too bad).
