    Anyone selling 'blem" Dan Wessons anymore?

    Several years ago I bought my Dan Wesson commander bobtail "CBOB" from a guy running a small gun shop by the name of Kenneth Hammerman. He had several "blem" guns from DW that he was selling for several hundred dollars off the price compared to a non "blem" gun. Back when I got it, I knew several other guys who bought these "blem" Dan Wessons from him. The blemishes were either a small pinhole on the surface of the frame that most people had a hard time finding, or something else small that wasn't even noticeable.

    I havne't been able to track down the contact info I had on Kenneth Hammerman.....but does anyone know of other dealers that sell Dan Wesson "blem" 1911's? I know a guy who is looking for one.

    IIRC, these tiny blemishes were the result of imperfections in the cast frames... so the reason you don't see any lately is probably that DW stopped using cast frames a while ago now! Doublestacks excepted, obviously.
    Too many people miss the silver lining because they're expecting gold.
