So I received a replacement for my problematic PT1911, and I got to take it out to the range for the first time today. It wasn't anything fancy, just a test run to make sure everything was working properly. I used 50 rounds of Federal American Eagle 230 grain, at a distance of 20 ft. Keep in mind that I am new to .45's (and 1911's in general), so while I am happy with the results, it may not stack up to what some of you veteran's can produce:



After I was done I ran about 50-60 rounds (WWB plinking rounds, 20 ft.) through my 9mm M&P, and quickly realized how much of an adjustment it can be going from the Single Action to a Double! But, I still managed to put up a good fight against the paper:

 
Nice. Just get ready for the people coming in and saying this could not be from a PT1911 because they don't actually work.
 
Not too bad! I have a PT1911 too and I absolutely love it. Using a standard law enforcement silhouette (scoring rings are a lot smaller than your target) but 14 out of 16 in the 9 ring or better with only 2 in the 8 ring. I don't care what people say about Taurus, because I used to be one of them, but these 1911s sure are shooters! I'm very happy with mine, especially for an entry-level 1911. I plan on keeping mine forever.
