Wilson's adjustable rear sight has a plain, black blade that the author generally likes for an all-around pistol, even if the sights were hard to pick up on the indoor range.

With the preliminaries out of the way, I moved the target back to 15 yards and did a bit of accuracy work from a sandbag rest. Once again, the black sights were a bit tough to pick up in the indoor range, but I did eke out a few really nice groups when I took my time and made sure of my sight picture before touching the super-light trigger.

In fact, two loads--Hornady's 200-grain XTP and Cor Bon's 230-grain Match--averaged right at an inch and showed flashes of brilliance that I unfortunately ruined by shooting ill-timed fliers.

Federal's 230-grain Hydra Shok load was right behind those with a 1.48-inch average, and Black Hill's 185-grain JHP load was no slouch either, with a 2.1-inch average.

The Limited is not just a pretty face --it's a shooter featuring an excellent trigger and a beveled magazine well for faster reloads.

A few weeks later, I returned to the range to see how the still-dirty pistol ran with an additional 300 rounds of assorted ammunition from Black Hills, Cor Bon, Federal, Hornady and Winchester. As expected, the Limited ran flawlessly, feeding, extracting and ejecting as reliably as I've come to expect from Wilson Combat's custom offerings.

Wilson Combat's Master Grade Limited worked as well as I expected, but I did learn a few things about the gun from my rapid-fire testing.

First, I really like the Starburst grip striations. Though they aren't sharp, the depth and pattern of the grooves work hand in hand with the checkering to lock the gun in your hand during rapid-fire strings. Two of my training partners who tried the gun made the exact same comment, so Wilson may be onto something with the new grips.

I also fell in love with the test pistol's trigger. It was so clean and light that it was easy to break accurate shots under pressure. In rapid fire, it really shined. Though the sub-three-pound pull was most certainly a fluke, the trigger was so crisp and clean that an extra pound of pull would be inconsequential.

As I mentioned, the test pistol's all-black sights were tough to pick up in low light, but they are still my first choice for a general purpose pistol. A gold or tritium front bead is nice on a fighting gun, but black just seems to work so much better for me on the target range and in the field, which is where pistols with adjustable sights belong.

To be honest, there isn't much I would change about the test pistol. I would opt for a standard-length guide rod over the full-length model and a single-side tactical safety over the test pistol's ambi safety were the pistol mine, but I could certainly live with the Limited just as it is.

Wilson Combat's Master Grade Limited is a fitting tribute to a man and company that have been so important to the shooting sports for the last 30 years. I use my pistols too hard to justify the expense of such a beautiful pistol. But for the 1911 collector, Wilson Combat's 30th anniversary pistol is a must-have.
