>>That is what they all say, Still say you could not shoot then or now and use that as an excuse for poor performance with your pistol.
I never said that it wasn’t accurate enough to get my Navy Expert Pistol medal, which I earned with one in 1985. I just thought they were rattly pieces of junk based on the fact that all the guns I owned were tight.
Your tight pistol won't function when exposed to the filth of combat. Tight guns are why so many self proclaimed experts criticize the 1911 platform as unreliable. Those rattling pieces of junk shoot well enough to hit a man at 50 yards and then some. When that is needed, if you are shooting X rings, you are shooting too slow.
