Welcome to the forum.

All recent production Dan Wessons are made with high enough quality parts that in my somewhat humble opinion nothing needs to be upgraded. Some of the older ones maybe, but not a 2010.

A lot of people, me included, prefer a standard GI guide rod over full length guides, so besides grips that's the only change I can think of. Are you thinking about combat sights, or just different low-mounted adjustables?

If I do anything with the sights, I will probably go with Night Sights. I have Night Sights on a few of my other guns and I really like them. I am not familiar enough with the stock black sights to know if I will like them.

What do most people here do with their 1911 sights?
