I was thinking about the SA vs. DA possibility, but once I load the chamber on the 4567 it shoots in SA mode until the clip is empty. During my hour-long range session, I pretty much shot both pistols in SA mode exclusively.

I'm with you on the heavier gun theory, and the fact that there's a reason why the 1911 has been so popular for so long. I just didn't want to discount the accuracy of the 4567 in the right hands. If I can hope to expect that those "right hands" will be mine some day, then I'll just keep at it (and still keep the SW1911 on my Christmas list).

Nice graphic, BTW! That's a keeper! I forgot to mention that I'm a leftie. Does the graphic still apply to me, or should I flip it horizontally in Photoshop?

EDIT: Found the left-hander version online (thank you Google):
