Handgun shooting problem

took my two "new to me" pistols to the range Monday. As expected, the huge grip on the alloy framed PT945 was not a tack driver. hard to fathom why the single stack grip frame is larger than my Para P14. The 608 performed excellent and is very easy to hit the zone with on both double and single action. I'm sure accuracy with the 945 will improve as I get used to it, not the first pistol that has given me issues at the beginning for the same reason. Just proves fitment to hand is important. oh yeah, tje 45 kicks like a mule

DRY FIRE!

Invest in some snap caps, or use suitable substitute.

You can aim at a target which contrasts the sights nicely then concentrate on the front sight.

See how the sights move as you pull the trigger through until let off.  Be especially watchful to how the sights move at the moment of let off.

Change grip, trigger finger placement and of course technique until the front sights move minimally.

Repeat until you are happy with the results.

HAVE FUN and always treat a firearm as if it is loaded!

OH, and experiment with your weak hand grip over the dominant hand.  I find that best results vary with firearm type FOR ME! (thumbs forward vs overlapping thumbs as well as height of grip for both hands.

Put a little more finger on the trigger and see if that does not help.

Usually shooting to the side is not enough finger on the trigger, pushing the pistol to the side.

Exellent, you can try this , and  i totally agree with you .
