I've decided to sell my nicest handgun which is a Dan Wesson Commander Bobtail .45 with custom work done by the legendary John Harrison of Harrison Design (http://www.harrisoncustom.com/Home.aspx). The DW CBOB is one of the nicest factory 1911s I've seen with mostly Ed Brown parts. I bought it new and have put about $800 into it with Harrison. It was only shot at an indoor range. With the custom work, I'm into it close to $1,800 when all is said and done. It's incredibly accurate. There are a few small marks on the top of the slide near the ejection port, but otherwise in excellent condition. I will also include the original 3 hole long trigger if you prefer it. It comes with a generic hard case, manuals, and the spent shell casing (unopened) from the factory. Below is a description of the custom work (still have build sheet) and a few pictures:
