Thumbs up 1911 Pro Series 45 sobcompact

Well, I just worked out' my new 1911 Pro Series 45 Sub Compact.
I bought it on Wednesday but I have already owned many 1911's from Colt, RIA, Para and whatever else I could legally purchase new or used in the People's Republic of Massachsuetts. A 1911 with these specs has never been available here.
This one far surpasses anything I've ever shot, right out of the box. At 50 feet, the first 14 rounds were all in the 10 ring, as fast as I could pull the trigger which is about 6 pounds.
I warmed it up with the 2 mags it came with but after that, I switched to whatever had, 6 or 7 rounders from Act, Brownell's or whatever.
No failures of any kind through 300 rounds of Blazer 230's, aluminum cases and 2 mag's of 230 Golden Saber's. This will be my carry (only about 25 oz.) loaded from now on.
