Analysis

This full-size .45 Auto combat pistol offers a robust platform for shooters seeking a classic design with proven performance. Its accuracy is commendable, delivering tight groupings at typical defensive ranges, thanks to a well-fitted barrel and slide. Ergonomically, the grip provides a secure hold for most hand sizes, enhancing control during rapid fire. Reliability is a key asset, with consistent cycling even under adverse conditions, making it a dependable choice for duty or personal defense. The trigger pull is crisp, averaging around 4.5 pounds, which aids precision without feeling overly heavy. Felt recoil is manageable, though stout, as expected from the caliber, and may require acclimation for newer shooters. On the downside, maintenance can be somewhat demanding due to the design’s intricacies, and sourcing replacement parts may pose challenges. Additionally, the weight could be burdensome for extended carry.
