Dan Wesson Pointman Seven? Any Good?

edited May 2006 in Ask the Experts
Ok guys, I have been jonesing for a 10mm...for several months. Mainly been looking for the Colt Delta Elite.
I got side tracked Thurs. when one of my gun guys put a Glock 20 (10mm) in my hand, and it was the FIRST GLOCK that ever "felt" right.

Now I am back to "real steel" [:p], no dig at the Glocks or others, but real steal gives me a woody...and the 1911 frame FITS my hand PERFECT!

Have my eye on a 99% Delta, $1,000 plus...but am eyeing some others too. I want a 99%, all original, as it will be shot, but not carried. AND I know that since their no longer made, and their starting to get a following that Colt is going to increase cosiderably over the years, won't ever sell it, be up to my daughter once I get room temp...[:D]

Here's the curv I got thrown about 2 hrs ago, I found this.
Anyone know about them? Good? Great? BAD? Seems to have a LOT of pretty awesome features!
One I'm looking at is NIB...ttl, EVERYTHING to me is $865.
I know hardly anything (more since ya'll helped[;)]) about Glocks, and LESS about the Dan Wesson's...have only heard good things about their .45's even after CZ came into the picture, but heard nothing on the 10mm's, help please...

    I bought one in .45 acp about 5 years ago and have put many rounds thru it with absolutely no problems. I have found it to be a very well made gun and for the money would much rather have it than a Colt. I see no reason why the 10mm would not be of the same quality.

    i have seen only a few of them at competition, and all where jamo matics, while they may work fine on slow fire, but put through combat scenarios they would make a fine club, not saying they are all like this just sharing what i witnessed
