GERMAN PISTOLS ACCURACY...

Kidvett,

FYI I went shooting with my 17 year old grandson today. After warming up at 25 yds, he asked me if I could hit an old cartridge box left on the dusty 100 yd backstop. I hit it twice out of the first 5 shots with my 1936 Mauser shooter (it jumped in the air real nice). The gun has a dark bore, but no pits. The sights were right on. He then proceeded to hit it the first time with my accurized 1911 (holding the front sight about 1/16" above the rear sight). The kid is getting downright embarrassing. Never could have done it with a straight GI gun. We checked the box--sure enough a number of holes in it.
