A Nighthawk is on my bucket list.
Gonna be a while though before I get to that. Until then I gotta live vicariously thru posters like Photonguy.
Just start saving up.
In the meantime, got any other really cool guns?

I can even get a head shot from 15 yards away with a 10mm.
And yet, you find it worthwhile to keep posting about it.Worthless post followed be worthless commentary followed by worthless retort followed by worthless response.
So much lack of worth here.
Except that Nighthawk. It's worth a lot to the OP.
So are you mostly a long gun person?Colt Combat elite and a Sig 228 are my carry pieces. Those are my only two handguns currently.
I see. Well Front Sight doesn't give you the opportunity to try for head shots at 50 yards with handguns, at least not in their basic classes.Glad you like the gun. I'm sure they are good and I have no problem with someone owning a high end gun and enjoying it. But you've not set the bar very high with the accuracy claims. The gun is probably capable of head shots at 50 yards+. Just like many others.
Yes you get what you pay for... up to a certain point.For those who've suggested I could've gotten some other 10mm gun such as a Glock 20 for a fraction of the price of a Nighthawk, the Nighthawk performs much better. With both the Glock and the Nighthawk you get what you pay for. I know, I've got a Glock, although not a Glock 20. The Glock will go bang but the Nighthawk shoots so much nicer and is so much more accurate. At my current skill level I can land a shot in the ocular cavity at 15 yards, that's the space that starts at the eyes and goes down to just above the mouth. I can shoot the paper target that's the shape and size of the average human and land my shot there at 15 yards. Could I do that with a Glock? Probably not. Maybe if I was more skilled I could. Could somebody much more skilled than me hit that same target at 50 yards, 100 yards, 200 yards with a Glock? Even the most skilled shooter would probably find it easier to do with the Nighthawk.
That has not been my experience with my Nighthawk or any of my Browns. I do have a Baer that is a little sensitive when it comes to hollow points, so I only use Golden Sabers when actually carrying it.The only problem i hear with uber expensive 1911s like Nighthawks is they tend to be ammo sensitive/finicky, now if you don't have that ammo sensitivity problem there PhontonGuy, then that's money well spent.
Just because you can buy a Ferrari it doesn't make you a race car driver.Went shooting this past Monday and with this thread in mind, took my Nighthawk, which I probably had not fired in over a year, along. Every compliment Photonguy paid it is well deserved. What a sweet 1911. With minimal assistance from me, it was putting bullets in the same hole. That never happened with my Glock. It's true that both a Toyota and a Ferrari will get you to the grocery store but if you can afford the Ferrari, it will get you there faster and in a lot better style.
The Ferrari won't get you to the grocery store any faster legally, you've got to obey the speed limit no matter what kind of car you're driving.Went shooting this past Monday and with this thread in mind, took my Nighthawk, which I probably had not fired in over a year, along.

Nope and just because you can buy a gun doesn't make you a crack shot.Just because you can buy a Ferrari it doesn't make you a race car driver.
