I have a Springfield 1911 Ultra compact (3.5” barrel) with a full size / length grip.
The thing groups nicely but shoots 4” low at 10 feet. 12” low at 10 yards. It feeds and functions perfectly in every other respect. I can’t take it back as it was a gift and I can’t use it like it is.
I am no gunsmith but my best guess is that some how the slide is moving too far forward forcing a downward angle with the barrel. Is this possible? If so how would one check to confirm and then fix it? What other things could be causing this … i.e. what would you look for in order and why?
Thanks
