Some of you may remember the two at the top that I posted sometime ago. I was having problems with them grouping and they were shooting WAY high. Well Ron Peterson's Gun Store did right by me. I traded back the two on top for the two on bottom and only had to add $100 per pistol. I think I did great.

They are all .45 Colt and now that I am reloading I can get into the Cowboy Shooting thing.

Well - THAT picture's worth a thousand words, and shows exactly how your high shooting problem was solved - heavy metal grip panels !

It might simply be the photo perspective but the two on the top appear to have slightly shorter front sights. Of course, the two on the bottom also have those longer barrels so that may be a designed offset.

At any rate, good job and here's best wishes for many years happy shooting.

You know... in looking at those pics, I woulda thunk that they woulda shot kinda low... there's some kinda "appurtenance" on the back of the trigger, wouldn't that liftin' of the hunk of steel cause the rear of the pistol to "lift" also?

you're right, the two on top have about 1/8 inch off the top. the new pistols hit right on the money.
