I am able to keep 60 rounds [100%]
well within the scoring area of an FBI "Q" type target fired over the qualification course that I am required to fire semi-annually. That course is fired at 25, 15, 10, 7 and 1 yd. lines.
I can keep 24 rounds, 3 mags, in the same "Q" target at 50 yds. off-hand and I'm not required to fire for score at 50 yds. and most likely I wouldn't in a real life situation anyway. I just do it for the satisfaction.
Tell me, what more do I need?
That's all I need to know. 1" or 4", who cares as long as I can hit what I need to when I need to.
Most shooters are
incapable of firing up to the potential of their pistol/ammo anyway so having a pistol, for many of them, that will group 1" at whatever distance is a mute point.
I have a P88 and a P88C. Both shoot better than the P5C, well the FS does anyway, but they are both larger. I would never even consider carrying the FS P88.
Put another way, the also beautifully built, and extremely similar Sig 225 is more accurate. What do you get extra with the P5?
I wouldn't know, I'm not a SIG person and wouldn't spend the money on one.
