I love the design, but if I'm going to spend that much it'd better not have target sights. It should fit into most holsters, especially open-muzzled ones. At 100 yards and beyond, regardless of effectiveness hitting your target with a 1911 is a challenge. A buddy of mine once shot a 7" group with a Prowler that had only a 3" garuntee. Great gun, more accurate than any other I've seen. I'd love to see what a 1.5" PIII could do at that range!
