I may be looking at a 'target' style 9mm. So far the Cajun Gun Works accurized Shadow 2, a TS 2 or a Sig p210 'Standard' model. Any thoughts on these and any other suggestions would be appreciated.
Just a side question, any 9mm that can compare to a good 1911 45ACP in accuracy? I have a Colt Goldcup that I accurized. Its very accurate, at least as good if not better than my Ruger MarkII bull barrel.
Thanks, good to know. I am an old timer, 1911 was the ONLY choice at the time(late 80s).A top 9mm will shoot better than a top 45.

"His 1911 style pistols in .45acp shoot 10 shot groups at 50 yards between 1.100” and 1.500”, with the average of 1.350”. The guns built in 9mm and .38 Super average just under 1.00” for 10 shots at 50 yards."
A 1911 is the Browning recoil operated design. Bushing is part of lock up.
Modern pistols are NOT a Browning recoil operated design. They are a Peter modified Browning recoil design. A bushing does not lock up a Peter modified design. Barrel lock up is at the barrel lugs.
Therefore I disagree that a CZ with higher expenses for a bushing is more accurate than other CZs. Same goes with the o-ring barrels on some HKs (VP9L, Tac, Expert, etc).
Brian Enos has some great threads about removing both bushing and o-rings experiencing zero change in accuracy.
Just so you know, Peter modified designs, bushing doesn't control lock up--by design.
