Dan Wesson DWX Compact
The Dan Wesson DWX Compact is a compact single-action carry pistol chambered in 9mm. It has an aluminum frame and a linkless, bushing-less match barrel.
The DWX is Dan Wesson's hybrid pistol, and the DWX Compact takes that design into a size meant for carry. It brings the innovation and performance of the full-size DWX into a refined, carry-ready form.
This is the base configuration in 9mm. The DWX Compact uses a linkless locked-breech design with a bushing-less, match-grade barrel tuned for accuracy. The barrel is 4 inches long.
The frame is aluminum with an anodized finish, and the grips are slim-profile aluminum. That keeps the weight to 28.5 ounces, light enough for all-day carry. The slide has a DLC finish, which is tough and resists wear from holsters.
The action is single action, and the sights are practical for carry: a tritium front for low light and a fixed rear. The slide is optics ready, and many components can be customized.
The DWX Compact measures 7.5 inches long, 5.06 inches tall and 1.25 inches wide. That's a slim profile for a pistol with this kind of trigger. It's offered in 15+1 or 10+1 capacity, depending on where you live.
If you want a light, slim carry pistol with a single-action trigger and room to add a red dot, the DWX Compact is a well-built option from a respected maker. It shares its design roots with the full-size DWX, but it's much easier to wear every day. It's a good fit for someone who wants a refined carry gun without stepping all the way up to a custom 2011.
