Buying a Colt 1911

Yooper

You are right, the two handed grip is best, and use the PUSH PUll method, pull back with one hand and push with the other, give your wrist a slight twist to the right.
Also Pistol shooting is NOT about dressing it up, it is more like Controlled Jerking.
The Marine Corps has a unique way of training their Competitors.
Take a six foot, 6 inch wide board, paint it White and mount it horizontially about chest high off of the ground at 17 meters (normal competition distance or 25 meters). Pull the weapon and fire, do not use sights, fire from the hip and keep practicing until you can get the rounds anywhere in the Horizontal board. When that is accomplished, make the board VERTICAL and do it again, keep practicing until you can get all your rounds in the Vertical Plane. NOW, take two 6 foot by 6 inch White boards and make a Cross. You will find that instinctively you will shoot the center every time, no sights needed.

Buying a Colt 1911

Harvey

I once fired 500 rds of 45 ammo in a single day. I had no clue what I was in for. For a week after I fired that ammo, my elbows felt as if I had fallen face first on cement and landed on my elbows. Maybe not bad for the fingers, but the elbows take a beating.

"wing..... your enthusiasm has gotten way ahead of your knowledge"

What is this suppose to mean? I should have known better? smile? Like I said I said I never claimed to be a Great pistol shot, I did want to be better and had only so much time to do so, before the match.

The 9mm Berrettas has those White Dots, I find when you deal with glare, they are hard to see.
My eyes are already shot, started when I was 44, many years ago.
