I'm jealous.
Those CBOBs are a little hard to come by from what I gather.
I do have a Panther though.

Yes, and mine has been a problem child since day one. It has been back to DW and they fixed the "Cartridge in the Face" issue but the FTF issue is worse. I loved the look and feel of a stainless 1911 Commander Bobtailed. With my disappointment with the DW CBOB, I bought a Smith & Wesson, Scandium Commander and had it Bobtailed. The S&W is without a doubt the finest handgun I have ever owned. It also is considerably lighter.

Two 'BOBs
I have two of the post CZ 'BOBs, a .45 and a 10mm- love them both. The .45 was perfect from day one (350 rounds now). The 10mm had some FTF issues during break-in, but I think they are solved now. I put in an Ed Brown extractor, and haven't had an FTF since. Most 1911 issues are simple to resolve if we try to analyze and remedy them: magazines; ammo; extractor; springs. Sorry I can't post pictures of my "babies"- I don't know how.

My post CZ CBOB was a dog. I could not get through a magazine without slide locking back, and failure to feed, (not at the same time) and getting hit in the face with cases. In fact, due to lack of imagination, I kept shooting without realizing that they were denting my plastic lenses. Oh well, I guess it was time for new lenses.
My friend BluesBear worked on it a bunch and it is much better, only the occasional FTFeed and occasional thump in the face. But I still have to wear safety glasses over my real ones.
On the good side, it is very accurate and has a great crisp trigger. We are thinking of maybe the other problems might require some polishing of the chamber. Might be asking 1911Tuner for some more tips.
