Cheap Aguila ammo at 5 yards. This wasn't the smallest group, but I didn't count the other because it was 3/4" with flyer that made it 3 1/4"
Out to 10 yards the groups stay around 3-4", but 15 yards and 25 yards become difficult to keep small for me.

I have some massive hands, as you can tell in the photo, so it's a little awkward to shoot. Do you guys have any trouble with hand size causing groups to wander?

Yes... If it fit my hand better, would be extremely accurate. Still a magnificent pocket gun.

+1 on the ghost connector !

I really like the 42 for the really " low profile " factor !
It truly is one pistol I would never sell ....

couple of months ago, at a USPSA match, several squad members showed an interest in my G42...I had a box of Fiocchi left from the break in period.... 18yd on a USPSA target... let 8 shooters, none had a G42, dry fire a couple of pulls, then shoot 5 rounds each, I shot 10...all 50 shots went into the "A" zone

I'm going to keep practicing with it. My groups tightened significantly after the first few weeks, but the tiny sights have been giving me trouble. I don't want to blame it on anything other than myself, so I'll stick with it, but a fiber optic or even a bright painted front sight would help a ton.

I shoot a G34 for USPSA and 3 gun competition, but I did have to drift the rear sight of the G42 to the right of the dovetail

Another thing reminded by posted above, I blacked out the white line on the rear sight.  Makes it easier to focus on the front sight with the short sight radius.  try a sharpie, if you don't like it, wipe it off.
