You bring up a good point. Personally, I put Baers up in the same league as Wilson, Nighthawk, etc, but Dan Wesson has upped the ante by building super nice gun at a fraction of the price of a semi custom. Right now, before I spent semi custom money, I’d take a long hard look at the DW line up.They are I have Wilson, Nighthawk, Ed Brown they are all good. Imo Ed Brown is the best there is. However for the money it's hard to beat Dan Wesson and Les Baer.
