Oddly enough, I feel the exact same way about the 1911. I love the gun conceptually, and consider it the seminal autoloading pistol, but it just absolutely does not work for my hand and eye. I can even shot them well enough, but I cannot do it quickly. Something about the angle of the grip, the trigger, the hieght of the sight plane or something just throws me off and wrecks that fine edge of concentration and comfort. I really do wish I could like them. *shrug*

Well, I guess if you've got a heavy trigger on it, that could be a problem. I've got a few Glock 19s lying around, all of which have (factory) 3.5 connectors in them. I shoot them a fair bit, and find that once you take up the slack in the trigger, you can easily find where it will break. I've NEVER had trouble with the trigger...in fact, it's far more accurate than I am.
