Thanks for the info folks...I think I'm going to look into another SA 1911A1 (sold the last one about three years ago; still kicking myself...)
Will: I assure you that I am not amused. I'm still no Beretta fan but carry and fire one often (what can I say...it's issued!) Mine has the sights blacked out, some skateboard tape on the grips, and 4 coils cut off the trigger spring. It shoots pretty nice until I get out to 25M. Then I group low right (about 5 o'clock) about 1" out of the black. Good luck with the BAR and Ruger. I would love to have both. Just convinced my better half that we really need a SIG 228. I think she'll smack me if I suggest another firearm right now... (have not yet sprung the 1911 on her). "Gee Hon, I've already got 1911 magazines and holsters...and look at all these parts. Think of the money we'll save...".
