Nothing special -- just my generic hundred and four year old blaster.

I love my DW Valor. It's my first, and so far only, 1911.
My DW ECO .45 has been the most reliable gun I've owned. Including rifles. Never once has it failed to fire, eject or stove pipe.
I preordered mine and got #36.
Those pistols are 90% of a good semi-custom's quality (Ed Brown, Wilson Combat etc... etc...) at 60% the price. They don't have the final finishing and blending touches (or options), but they are extremely good for the money.
The Valor is an awesome 1911. I don't own one, but I do have a Specialist (and Ed Brown, Wilson Combat etc... etc...).
Hope you get many good years out of yours.
I have two Colts. The 1991A1 in .45 was bought new in 1994, and the Gold Cup Trophy in 22lr was the prize in a shooting competition at my local range, which I won using the .45 
.
The .45 has had some improvements over the years, and has been my main carry gun for over a decade now. It even has the obligatory idiot scratch from before I knew what I was doing.

For range gun with super accuracy get a Baer 6” with the 1.5” guaranty.
For carry get an alloy frame officers model. Wilson seems best to my hands and eyes.
I carry a vintage USGI 1911 from 1917. It does what I need.
Gamers and competition shooters bad mouth them. But, they were not designed for games or competition. That is the realm of plastic.

I’ve had my TRP for about 18 years now and love it. Never a problem out of it and I have shot thousands of rounds through it. I have a Springfield Marine Corps Operator (original version) and a Champion Operator LW as well and they’re nice but I really like the TRP.
I bought a well used Baer premier carry something something off gunbroker and sent it to Integrity Arms to have new sights installed, a high-power cut done and DLC'd. Awesome carry piece.
