"Most guns made today have sights that are adjustable in some way. I wonder why that is if it is not better."
I've always assumed it was because they couldn't make a run of guns that would all shoot accurately with fixed sights. Or that a lot of buyers wanted to shoot different bullet weights and needed adjustables. I dunno. Some days I think adjustable sights are just one more thing that will break sooner or later.
I was very pleased that my Colt WWI Repro shot to point of aim. I would have been happy with close, but they got it right. From what I've heard about the O1911 Repros, this isn't unusual.
