As an old 1911 man back in the 70's, I got to the point I could keep my hits within a 1 inch circle at 25 yards and 2 inches at 50 yards. Something about the M9 just threw me off to the point as a Major I could just barely qualify. Now in full disclosure, I have and love my Beretta PX4 Storm 9mm as a sometimes conceal carry weapon but mostly use my Glock G19 Gen 4....so the caliber is not the issue.
