Shot my new 1911 finally.

[Offhand McFlan]

It'd be surprising if it's the gun, the Remingtons I've owned have all be very accurate, even for 1911s.

Likely just adjusting to the trigger and platform, although I have zero experience with .40 1911s so maybe there's something there too.

This!
I just said in another thread how chambering handgun in something other than it was originally designed around really change reliability and accuracy alot. 40 is a snappy round too. Might be he's just compensating as if it was a lighrweight Glock or similar.

To say a glock or m&p trigger is not that different vs a 1911 single action is weird to me, they are entirely different animals.

You're defining tapping as I am, but it's not jerking. How about you give it a try man, if it doesn't work all it costs you is a few rounds.

I had asked, is this a 40 or a 45 in the 1911 you have?

It's a .40 S&W.

@Trey Veston

That monster is an excellent CCW handgun! This I've learned after a willingness to bypass inexpensive holsters for those in the Milt Sparks category, or similar. Enjoy, and post again after your next trip to the range. Congratulations on knocking the dust off, and getting out there with this new one!
