Ed (Jack and other guys),

This target was a 7 shot group fired carefully (two hands, slow fire, good sight focus, etc. etc.) but not from a rest. The range was about 60 feet (the target distance is anywhere you put your target frame here in WV). My gun has a slightly improved trigger and it is well sighted in (both per Hugh's instructions), but the trigger is still heavy and gritty per 1911 standards.

I admit that I can't do this every day, I usually drop more than one shot from the group and it is very hard to shoot this gun rapidly. Nevertheless, the inherant accuracy of this gun is uncanny. If I do my part, it never drops the shot out of the black.

Review some of Thor's targets again. These guns are amazing. Get yourselves some glasses that put the sights in focus (I need them desperately, I turned 69 today), pick up a bushel of ammo and go practice-practice-practice.

I have other accurate guns that are much easier to shoot (especially in rapid fire), but none including my match 1911s that will group like this one.

Gotta go now. It's off to the range--happy birthday to me.
