Got more than a few Dan Wesson's and am looking at these two.  The specialist is everything I would want in a trp but that triangle top cut of the tcp looks appealing.

I'd carry the TCP, the Specialist I believe is only in steel frame.

That said, my next 1911 will be a Specialist. But I carry an ECO.

SOrry for the non answer. I prefer the Specialist of the two.

I've got both and love both. If I could only keep one it would be the specialist just because I prefer steel frame.
The "style" of the tcp is awesome though with the squares off front, top, and other little touches
DW collection. Somehow missing the DT valor

I prefer the look of the specialist but I always have. The tcp would be a lot nicer if it’s actually going to be carried for sure. Wearing a full steel baer right now and they are chubby

Specialist would get my vote. Should have never sold the 9mm Commander I had.

One's an aluminum framed commander and the other is a steel framed government so I guess it depends on what you want it for.

Ok. OP's reply sounds like he isn't interested in the Commander Specialist so we're back to a lightweight commander vs a steel government.

I've carried a TCP on and off for about 6 years. It's a good pistol in that role.

For a pure shooter I'd prefer the Specialist.

Copy. I thought you meant the specialist only came in govt.

OP. Just get both (commander and govt specialist) and TCP
