I read a couple great reviews with guns shooting almost like custom guns.  My experience with my pistol was not all that.  

The gun isn't bad, but the grips aren't the best, the bushing fit is sloppy, the link fit was not correct, the extractor tip ideally should be modified, the slide stop pin on mine measured .198" and the hole in the frame .203".  The barrel throat needed a few minutes of 220 grit hand sanding at the edge that meets the chamber.  The bushing slop causes inaccuracy, the other play causes vertical dispersion and poor feeding.

Overall in 3 hours with a properly sized EGW bushing, link kit, and an oversized .201" slide stop you should be able to bring the gun up to speed.  

My EGW slide stop needed to be welded up and recut to reliably lock the slide (0.025" of the magazine follower contact surface material that existed on the OEM was not on the EGW).

The gun locks up rock solid now.  I just have to get out and try it again to see if my 1" wide 5" tall group closes to 3" or so at 25yds.

It seems like many 1911 stories- a few great guns get made, and then a lot of acceptable ones get sold on the reviews of the really great guns in the early production.
