The Heritage is Dan Wesson's entry-level 1911, allowing shooters to experience Dan Wesson quality at the most affordable price possible. Even though this model is economical, it features all the same quality components that Dan Wesson use in 1911 models.
A Government-size model, it has a 5-inch barrel and is chambered in .45 ACP. The slide features Clark-style rib and wears a tritium front sight and plain black, snag-free rear. The sides of the slide have a nice brushed polish on the flats while the rounds are sandblasted to match the matte forged frame with undercut trigger guard and smooth front strap. Grips are double diamond rubber.
The Heritage RZ-45 Pistol is a great introduction to the Dan Wesson 1911 experience and Dan Wesson's confident it will become an heirloom, handed down from generation to generation.
