TScotto, congratulations on your new acquisition! I would agree that any FTF is less than acceptable, but I wouldn't even think about relying on an autopistol that has less than 500 rounds thru it, and a thousand would make me feel even better. Some guns (like the SIG's) are fine straight out of the box, but that's why you pay premium prices for them. If you're shooting ball ammo and still having problems, then I'd worry, but you will know pretty quick what feeds and what doesn't. My preference in 45ACP runs to Hydra-shoks and Gold Dots, but shot placement still counts most. The more you practice, the better you'll feel about your new purchase. Enjoy it and be safe!
