Put about 130 rounds down range. Zero FTF OR FTE. I installed Magguts Springs in both magazines, and I'm glad I had the extra rounds. The only disappointing thing was that it shoots low. At 7 yards, I was aiming near the top of the 6 inch target to hit bull's-eye. I was able to hit steel gongs at 20 yards, aiming at the top of the gong. Is that common?

You didn't mention what weight of bullet or how experienced you are with pistols. Very lightweight bullets shoot very low, something many people don't realize. Also see error chart attached.

Not a new shooter, but generally shoot 1911s. I realize I'll need to get used to the different trigger feel and I'm not crazy about the hinge trigger. May have to get an Apex. I was shooting 115 gr cheap Federal and American Eagle ammo.

115 gr is standard weight in 9mm, so no super light bullets there.

Sometimes somebody shows up with some gimmick ammo, like a 70 gr bullet and wonder why they can't hit anything. But the advertising said it really destroys a roast beef! They work really well if you get attacked by a roast beef.

I would LOVE to be attacked by a couple pounds of sliced roast beef, especially if it brought along his buddies Hoagie and Au Jus or Mayo/Mustard.

First time out with my M&P 40 C I had similar results. I had to consistently hold way at the top of the target. I practiced dry firing over the next week. When I went to the range the following week POA was POI. It wasn't the pistol, it was me. I found that it was me pulling the trigger.
