DW Guardian Duce Range Report
Got
 's (now my!) Guardian Duce on Friday and my son and I had a chance to take it out to the range today.We shot 300 rounds through it and more through the Sig Carry and the Citadel CS. The Duce was by far the most fun to shoot. We shot a variety of JHP hand loads, Winchester white box range ammo, and some PMC range ammo. We used both the supplied CM mags, and some ACT mags I had laying around. Not sure why I didn't bring the WC's I've got.It had a little trouble chambering my HPs, but no trouble with the Winchester. Impressions: Unbelievable trigger. No creep, very light touch. Feels like 3.5-4lbs. Feels really good in the hand. Very stable. I like the stock grips, but may replace them anyway  Target sights were relatively easy for my old eyes to acquire a picture. Sights were right on. Minimal recoil. This is a fairly substantial pistol. Very accurate. The picture below was my first three mags shot at 15yds at a standard silhouette target, offhand, rapid fire. There were a flyer or two as I got used to the trigger and the overall feel. My son got the center of mass part of the target and I got the head.  Overall: I got a deal, !Thanks!

Not too sure about the leather, though. This is really a target gun, and it's got "  " sights. It doesn't fit my SS2. I've checked out a couple of threads where people were looking for leather for these and were not happy with the results.Not sure I would ever carry it, but if you have suggestions, I'm all ears!
