Point of Impact
Shooters may use a “point of aim” sight picture at
25 yards. This means that, at 25 yards the bullet should
impact the target at the point visible at the top of the
front sight. Shooters may also use a “6 o’clock” sight
picture to strike the center of the target. Springfield
Armory pistols are designed to use the “6 o’clock” sight
picture at 25 yards. However, some pistols may shoot
“point of aim” at 25 yards depending on shooter and
ammunition.
Note: 1911-A1 Ultra-Compact Pistols are designed to
use standard pressure ball ammo and self-defense
loads. +P ammunition is not recommended in pistols
shorter than 5 inches. Use only clean, dry, original,
high-quality, commercially manufactured ammunition.
