Greetings again, Thanks for all the advice. I will try your recommendations and see if I can improve. I wonder if an arched housing would not have an opposite effect. Wouldn't the "hump" area of the housing push against my palm and pivot the front of the gun upward? I guess I just need to try this to see what happens. 14/88 Gonzo

Greetings, I have always used a flat mainspring housing, and I certainly use a "tense" hold... But, my groups are OK, so what is really going on here? 14/88 Gonzo

Greetings, After many thousands of rounds through my .45 government 1911s I have come to a startling conclusion. The angle of the grip frame is wrong for me. I found that when I point the gun it always results in the front sight being higher than the rear. So much so that I consistently shoot groups 3 inches higher than if I were to purposefully match the top of the front and rear sight. What should I do? Yes, I could keep shooting high, or I could force my wrist at an un-natural angle to align the tops of the sights, but should I be forced to? Or, could the front sight heigth be changed so that my natural wrist angle would allow for the front sight to match the rear sight? 14/88 Gonzo (Edited by Gonzo at 2:12 pm on July 14, 2002)
