I see a lot of posts regarding Ruger and Taurus revolvers (occasionally Colt) for those avoiding S&W, but only a couple of incidental comments about Dan Wesson revolvers. From their website, the company appears to produce a good selection of revolvers though at a higher cost than Ruger or Taurus. Are the Dan Wesson revolvers a good quality gun?

I owned a Dan Wesson for almost 20 years. It was a fine revolver.
I guess we forget about Dan Wesson. They were out of business for a few years...it'll take a bit of time to get gun buyers to recognize their existance again.
I don't know if they still sell the revolvers with interchangible barrels...that was their big thing in the '70's when I bought mine.
BTW, the only reason I sold mine was to buy a Glock. In the mid eightie's, there was a movement to ban them as a terrorist weapon...you know...Feinstein, Schumer and those type of low rent trailer park child eating scum.

I have a DW .357...about 19yrs. old. I am a big fan of their products. They went out of business...but are back with a new owner.They still make interchangeable barrels and shrouds.Mine is a tack driver.They also are coming out with a new 1911 style .45acp.I don't think they were all that popular.with the shooting community,which tends to be very conservative.The very first models had the barrel nut exposed at the muzzle. A very heinous looking device.I think it turned a lot of shooters off.Most people were buying Colts and S&W back then.
