Your sights are fine, you are reaching too far into the trigger with your right hand. Look at your off hand grouping.
Just quick grab your gun with your right hand like you are going to shoot, take note of your trigger finger in relation to the depth. Do the same with your other hand I will bet you will see the difference.

i didn't mean to say adjust the sights on the gun , but adjust my natural aim eye-sights-target when i snap shoot, i'm not pointing entirely straight when the gun comes up for the first shot.

You can actually tell, cause my 2nd round of the double tap is in the black, where as my first one ain't. I'm adjusting on the second tap, the only 3rd tap was even more to the right.

I would much rather not be off at all. I do take comfort in the fact that the rounds dad makes for me are critical with a good "winging"

well sure, but it's better to be low on center mass then to be left on a headshot.
Yours would still hit, mine would be a clean miss.

Head shots are low percentages, aim for the body mass. You have a .45acp, no need for perfect placement, just hit something.

I wouldn't if I were you. Look at where this country is going then remember your history classes. Doesn't this shadow Germany in the mid 20's?

I'm not referring to the government taking your guns, I am thinking more along the lines of people in general trying to take anything they can get. I feel there is going to be a real need for home defense. I am usually not someone who feels threatened or doom and gloom but I just have a feeling it is going to get very bad. I have learned to trust my gut.
Mine is a ban era H-Bar carbine. Big deal I don't have a bayonet lug on the gas block and my muzzle break is welded on. I can live with that. I do however have a USMC bayonet, I guess I will just use that for throat slitting instead of rifle stabbing.

Good afternoon guys. My wife's uncle lives across the back fence from the man that built the 50 cal guns. He has several WW2 era tanks as toys.
