I shot some HP and ball and truncated lead point, to include 147 gr HP, all fed.
I don't like how the second rnd in the mag rides with the nose a bit down with ball and long HP; but, when it is
time to feed it must pop up because everything feeds.
It shot high and left, but, the sights are adjustable and I may need to tweak them a little more. The only 10 ring I got was
the shot I fired a 6 yds; why 6 because it was half way to the tgt.
A couple of cases hit me in the head.
Trigger is good and recoil is like a .22, but, the pistol is listed at 43 oz.
This is a one handed gun, I get better accuracy.
I may try painting the sights.
Carries well, except I need a tall untucked shirt or use IWB holster, though Clean said it was not showing; however,
my jacket was not as short as most.

Outstanding purchase! I think that the 9mm 1911 is one of the most underrated guns out there. I adore mine.
(Also, I owned a 9mm 1911 before it was cool )
I thunk I fired that one at a Texas Shoot a few years ago.
The prevailing opinions of days past was why a 9mm in a 1911, why bother and just get one chambered in a .45 ACP like it was meant/designed to be.
Times and opinions have changed (by many) on the 9mm, ammo crisis didn't exist, bullet designs are better in ALL calibers these days and the .45 in a 1911 was considered 'The Pistola' to have for a man who could handle/shoot one well.
The most accurate 9mm I've ever fired was a single stack SIG 210 (?) it was a Swiss Army turn-in I believe and used the owner paid a premium for it. A sheer delight to shoot and the results I got @ 25 meters on the bull were amazingly good.
It's only true if it's on this forum where opinions are facts and facts are opinions
