First Look: Dan Wesson 715 Revolver

dan_wesson_715_revolver_FDan Wesson announced they are resuming production of their popular line of revolvers in 2014. The "new" Dan Wesson 715 is chambered in .357 Magnum and features an interchangeable six-inch barrel.

The DA/SA 715 incorporates a new HV6 shroud with a heavy vent profile to aid with the Magnum's recoil. The Dan Wesson 715 is compatible with barrels and grips from 15-2 models and newer revolvers.

With regular production resuming in late summer, the Dan Wesson 715 revolver should be available starting Fall 2014 at a suggested retail price of $1,168.

In the web exclusive photo gallery and video below, we further examine the Dan Wesson 715 at the Academi Training Facility in Moyock, North Carolina:
