Take all of this with a block of salt as I'm a former 1911 guy who's been carrying and shooting Glocks and HK's for the last 10 years or so.
Since I picked up this pistol I've put exactly 400 rounds through it and here's what I can tell you: this gun is a shooter. The checkering is not so sharp that it cheese graters my hands, the sights work as expected, I certainly appreciate the undercut trigger guard, my only complaint is the thumb safety has a bit of overtravel which seems to be the norm with Colts these days. I had no issue ringing steel targets (shaped like hogs, approximately 2' tall x 3' long) at 100 yds or keeping all of my shots in a 3" shoot n see target at 25 yds. I did not shoot on a timer and a don't have a holster for it yet, but if you can run a 1911 I think you'll be fine with this one. Recoil seems subjectively softer with the front sight snapping right back onto target.
A dedicated 1911 guy may see things differently, but for myself after having not owned or shot a 1911 in a long time, these are my impressions.
