Congratulations! I think you spend way to much time in gun shops. You will love the gun. It has a pretty short sight radius, could be the consistency problem. Great carry gun.

Nice write-up and a good first time out. I had similar lefty shot patterns and made the previously outlined changes that helped my comfort level but I was still left. I initially considered using my Ed Jennings sight pusher but found through dry firing that my longer than average trigger finger was not pushing straight back, but subtly pushing the point of aim left. Due to the shorter reach of the ECO's size to get the shot placement I want I have to inset my trigger finger further into the trigger guard and squeeze with front portion of the second pad. I know, not recommended technique but it works for me with the ECO. I have the long trigger option in my other 1911s. NOTE- I really like the ECO grips and would not have changed them if my hands were not so large. If anyone can use them I would be happy to send them along. Officer size thin. They are handsome. I can post a picture if wanted.

I didn't pick up what was happening during firing but at home dry firing, working on maintaining sight picture during trigger squeeze. It wasn't much, just pushed the front post up against the left side of the rear sight aperture leaving a larger white space on the right side of the post. My old eyes make it a challenge to get a good sight picture so I dry fire at the TV screen and that brightness gives me a sight picture I wish I always had when shooting. It may work for others. Seems to work best for me when LPGA Golf is on the tube. I am really focused.
