Accuracy Section
editAt was distance do the average groups correspond to? 25 yards? This is crucial information that needs to be added to the section. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.154.189.192 (talk) 18:48, 15 February 2014 (UTC)
Until someone can confirm this better by actually reading the article I found the answer according to a forum and it is 25 yards. http://forum.m1911.org/archive/index.php/t-22294.html
"In terms of mechanical accuracy, the pistol Wiley Clapp tested out of a Ransom Rest, delivered very good accuracy, shooting five consecutive, five shot groups at 25 yards using 4 different types of ammunition and it achieved an average group size of 1.84" 24.154.189.192 (talk) 18:55, 15 February 2014 (UTC)Gizmo
Advert
editI added an "advert" tag to the article because it has a promotional tone to it. It's fine to include the views of reviewers, but if that's the approach then a good sampling of views, pro and con, should be included. In this case, it looks like some sources have been cherry picked to just give the positive side. If this is just another M1911 clone maybe it's not really worth writing about anyway.

Deletion?
editThe article seems to not hold much notability, seemingly just another M1911 clone. It also seems to have a promotional tone (as stated by Felsic2 in the Advert section of this talk page) which has not been resolved, and seems rather difficult to resolve.
This has led me to question whether perhaps this article is superfluous and could be better handled by merging with other related articles or outright deleting. Any thoughts? Emma.Dolphin (talk) 17:07, 17 August 2024 (UTC)
