Sorry for the reply delay. I got locked out by using the wrong password.
The shop in in my home town, not Chattanooga. I generally like the guys, and thought I was missing something. My OACP is just big enough for my hand, so it is just the right size for CCW. The one DW 1911 I have been able to handle was quite nicely done and I can afford a step better than a Colt, now days. It doesn't hurt that my DW 41V is such a good revolver, even though the company is completely different.
My sister has a 3" 9mm Kimber with some factory upgrades that has given her several problems extracting and short stroking. Then, the magazine floorplate broke off and dumped the contents on the floor while she was shooting it. Misbehaved some for me, even. Kimber was a PITA fixing it. They patted her on the head over the phone when she called them. When she called back and went school teacher on them they fixed it. So, I won't be giving them my money.
