Pistolero "Enlightenment" can happen with other brands, it just seems to happen more frequently with DW owners.

The "Enlightenment" is hard to explain to the unenlightened, but generally speaking here are some common threads:

You acquire a 1911 that costs much less than a custom 1911, but that is accurate and totally reliable right out of the box.

Clearing jams is a distant memory from your past.

Quite unlike any other handgun you've owned, your 1911 just feels right in your hand, as if it were actually an extension of your body.

You shudder at the thought that you once trusted your life to a different handgun.

You notice that 1911s costing twice or three times as much as yours don't seem to be as well made/reliable/accurate as yours.
