I got to shoot my Walther ( Colt ) 1911 Gold Cup Trophy today. All shooting was done off hand at only 10 yards because I was testing funtion, not accuracy but I did manage to keep 90% of my shots in the 4 inch10 ring.

I've modified my 1911 a little using compatible parts for a standard 1911. I replaced the sear, mainspring, sear spring, front sight and guide rod
The gun was a little sluggish on the first 2 magazines but broke in very well after that. I tried some dry lube on the gun and it just doesn't like it. It took 2 magazines of Aguila 40 grain Super Extra before I started getting 100$ reliability.

I worked the trigger with a few accessories to the gun. I put a new Fiber Optic front sight from Dawson Precision, Sear from Wilson Combat. Mainspring Housing and Mainspring from Numbric Arms, Trigger from who knows who.

I really like this gun and I'm going to shoot it at the next Steel Challenge Match.
