Milu,
No checkering on a P210, some sight work on slides (Bomar and Millett ffrom memeory). There are lots of them out there, try Wilson, Kimber, etc. 1911s have hard slides and (supposed to be slightly) softer frames.
I take it the Detonics is one of the smaller ones and not a ScoreMaster? Built on their (Oly?) or Colt frame? I am a large guy and only see the Officer size as maybe an ankle or tertiary weapon. If it is the smaller version I bet the recoil/handling characteristics are “interesting”.
I have seen quite a number of the series 70 Gov’t models plus some purpose built guns shoot 1-2”. I was shocked with the groups. I was using 50’ small bore targets and thought I was only getting one round on the paper. All were large holes. Much more accurate than a 70 Gold Cup in 9X19 (1.25-1.5 was the best I was ever able to average).
Ammunition being the huge delta. If you can get some Swiss 154 gr. Ammo… I can take other ammunition that it doesn’t like and “improve” the groups to 4-5” at 25 yds. Kind of like some folks in the P.I. having accuracy issues w/their Steyrs, 6”+ at 100yds, then going to even M80 dropped them to the 1-2” range.
My CCW is that 1911 with a carry comp set-up (Commander slide, 5” bar-Sto) in .45 Super shooting 185 grain Sierra match semi-wadcutters. I have hunted enough with it (though the 1st time was accidental) and others to like the combination.
S/F, FOG
