Talking Just recieved my new ECO......


After being on the wait list at my local shop for about 3-4 months i was surprised yesterday when I got a call from the owner telling me he had a non blem in 45 acp that just arrived with my name on it.

I won't go into all the details right now (I will later). This pistol could easily be sold for double the price. quality is off the charts along with the design. Fit and finish - all I can say is wow.

I have not shot it yet but I will in the next couple of days and will take video.

Here are some pics. They are not the best since I have been fitting it to a new Galco Summer comfort holster so I need to polish it up a bit and re post some pix but these will do for now. All I have done is add the custom grip screws I got from VZ. I actually really like the VZ slim grips that come on it.









New Dan Wesson designed Heinie Straight eight rear ledge night sight / Slide to receiver fit is unbelievable =




Love the new design of the top of the slide =


pretty nice Target crown / single guide rod with a flat spring rated at 25,000 rounds =




I havent been on the forums in a while but I figured it was time to start coming around again. I can't believe I was able to get my hands on one of these.
Range report with videos going soon......
