John C, I'm past the 500 round mark now, and while the gun keeps getting easier to use, in my opinion it's still not "broken in". The barrel still "sticks" in the bushing when the gun is in battery; once you break things free, the slide now moves back smoothly, but that first little bit is very, very tight.
I'm also glad that the gun doesn't seem to be a walking advertisement for the company that builds it. Everyone that sees it thinks it's an ordinary 1911, not something "special", which is what I want. If anyone asks, I tell them. I think the gun is an example of "form follows function"; it just works. When I look through the magazertials for all the different 1911's, just about every other brand catches my eye long before the P2. The P2 doesn't stand out - but when it comes to function, it's rapidly becoming my favorite gun!
