How many of you use an Arched MSH? I just put an Ed Brown on my new Springfield Black SS Combat, i really like the way it fills your hand over a flat MSH. Might have to put one on my S&W 1911.

Why????

I used to shoot bullseye longer ago than I like to think about. While I have no perferance as to feel. While in the army, and shooting an endless amount of ammo, I found that a flat msh added points to my scores.
I sometimes helped out the armmorer and we constantly changed msh to suite different shooters. There is a difference in accurecy for different people. We found a about 8 to 1 in favor of flat msh. Dont get me wrong some shot better with arched. We had plenty if both on hand.

I switched out the flat msh with the S&A arched with mag well a while back on my TRP Professional. I prefer the arched over the flat. I also like the way it fills the gap in my hand. The S&A is a quality unit.
