       CZ new single action pistol Very nice

       Dan Wesson is teasing a new and unique design ahead of its 2020
       release, the DWX. The DWX is part CZ, part Dan Wesson 1911, and
       it’s 100 percent race-ready, optimized for USPSA Limited
       Division and other competitions with similar rules.
       “It started as an experiment — a grand melding of Dan Wesson and
       CZ pistols,” said Dan Wesson. “Borrowing the crisp single action
       fire control group of a DW 1911 and combining it with the
       ergonomics and capacity of a CZ, the resulting pistol emerged as
       something great.”
       In fact, Dan Wesson is prepping two DWX models, a full-size that
       uses P-09/P-10-pattern magazines and a mid-size model that uses
       CZ 75 Compact and CZ 75 magazines.
       This combination gives the DWX the same grip and handling
       characteristics of a CZ pistol with the action and trigger of a
       1911. It also has all the must-have features of a premium
       semi-custom competition pistol.
       The DWX isn’t just a 1911 with a CZ-style grip. The upper also
       draws from the CZ pool and uses a P-07/P-09-style barrel lockup
       and takedown system. It has a bushingless bull barrel with a
       recessed target crown and extended slide release and takedown
       lever.
       Other features on the slide include a dovetailed 1911-pattern
       fiber optic front sight, fully adjustable CZ Shadow 2 target
       rear sight, and deep forward and rear slide serrations. The
       topstrap also has full-length serrations to cut glare.

       The grip is true to CZ form and has deep checkering on the
       frontstrap and mainspring housing. The DWX uses standard CZ grip
       panels and comes with flush checkered alloy grips common to a
       lot of CZ’s competition guns.
       “With the grip angle and contours that have made the CZ 75 a
       stand-out in the realm of pistol ergonomics, the DWX is a
       natural fit to most hands,” said Dan Wesson. “The full-size DWX
       uses standard CZ 75 grips, while the compact DWX uses those from
       a 75 Compact. Corresponding magwells for the 75 series are
       compatible as well.”
       The standard grips have a red anodized finish to match the
       K-style trigger and magazine base pads. Combined with a barrel
       in the white and the DWX, at least in this configuration, has a
       very sporty three-tone look that will stand out at any range.

       Very cool.  What IPSC division do you think this will fall into?
