I have been asked about the accuracy of this gun as far as point of aim. Remember this is a combat pistol that was sighted in like all combat pistols at longer ranges than most of us shoot revolvers at. I took it out this morning and ran a few boxes of .45 Colt through it. This particular target was at 15 yards off hand . There are 18 holes there although most are through other holes. The top set is point of aim with sights aligned . The bottom through the red is with sights aligned so that the post is at the bottom of the notch. One flier. My fault. As you can see the consistency is there and the gun is as accurate as I am capable of shooting proficiently. The load was .452 plated round nose Berrie's 225 grain ( ACP bullets ) with 7.5 grains of True Blue. Nice middle of the road somewhat accurate load. This is a gun you can call your shot with.
