….extremely good choice……with the price of good used Commanders, by the time you put good sights on like yours, it's almost cheaper to just buy the new Wiley Clapp Model---added perc of a checkered frame.

The choice is now the Guardian in .45 ACP or do I try it in .38 Super since I found one of those $5 cheaper than the .45?

I don't know about your area but around here .45 ACP ammo is easier and cheaper to find than .38 Super. Spare mags for .38 Super are also at a premium, whereas Colt .45 ACP mags are easy to find and inexpensive.

FWIW.

Check out Turnbull for a Commander. Very nice, and extremely well made.

Look around for a Colt 21st Century Commander.

Well worth the money and will stay that way.

Better move quick!

I'd snatch that up and giggle all the way home. Dan Wesson's are very nice pistols.

Well the dealer that had the .38 Super Guardian didn't realize one of his employees had already sold it. It must by karma so it l9ks like the .45 is the way to go
