The Dan Wesson V-Bob pistol in .45 ACP with a duty finish and 4.25-inch barrel (brand part no. 01826) rounds the Valor line’s grip frame into a bobtail shape for reduced printing and improved concealability, giving carry-focused shooters the Valor’s premium build in a more discreet package. Dan Wesson forges the frame from stainless steel and applies a duty finish to the slide, and G10 grips pair with a fixed tritium front night sight and a U-notch rear sight. An ambidextrous thumb safety works alongside a grip safety, and the single-action trigger holds 8+1 rounds. Among bobtail-frame semi-auto handguns, this V-Bob configuration favors concealed carriers who want a premium 1911 with reduced grip printing.
