Ok, I've been watching this to see what was said. Question is what difference does it make? I spent lots of years chucking bullets downrange in competition using both the 45 and the 22 in auto guns. All were accurate and worked very well.
I'm mostly a revolver guy, but have over the last 45 years owned several 9mm and 40 S&W guns, the last of which was one of Smiths wonderful little 4013's with a 3 and 1/4 inch bbl. Along with that I've shot a bunch of different semi-autos and found that most all of them shoot fine even considering the slight differences in bore axis.
Bottom line is I'm having a hard time figuring out what your really after.
First thought was the CZ, as mentioned previously. The others that come to mind are the Browning Hi power, and the new M&P is glock like in terms of bore axis.
Bob, from what I understand, could be wrong- the main issue for a pistol with a low bore to hand axis is that they are reported to have better manners when returninig to point of aim during recoil and cycling. Guns that are much higher than the hand jump more, and then follow-on shots are not as fast. I don't have much issue with this myself, and as you have mentioned the 1911 in 45 ACP has pretty much set the standard in rapid re-aquisition.
A couple of taller guns that I have seen that were more difficult for me to get back on target were a SIg 220 with hot loads, and many years ago a Smith 1006 10mm. Other than that, most of this can be overcome with a solid grip, and forward, aggressive stance.
Best to you fellows.
Steve
