First, great videos, I really enjoy them!! The more "slanted" grip angles derive from older European shooting styles where you faced more "sideways" from the target than the western Squared off methods of point shooting. As you move your arm more sideways you'll notice your grip angle changes to match that of those pistols. Important to note this when assisting new shooters in pistol selection as their NPOA will steer them to a group of pistols with the appropriate grip angle. Those who tend to square themselves to the target tend to prefer the 1911 angled grip whereas the opposite tend to steer toward the more slanted angle. This also is why most tend to complain about Glocks is because the grip angle lends itself better to the same European sideways stance.
Nice video, nice pistol!!!! I'm looking at a Hi-Standard Citation with that grip angle at a pawn shop near me for $579.99. If you pay with cash you get a discount. I haven't actually checked it out yet but I'm planning to very SOON. I first wanted to do some research on the Internet to find out any possible drawbacks to that particular pistol or hidden problems since it is USED and possibly ABUSED which I have seen over the years!!!!👍😁😎
It's called a slant GRIP Victor, not slant groove. They made a few of these back in the sixties in the original High Standard factory. Most were the military grip version. The grip angle is just a matter of taste to the individual shooter. McMillan won a gold medal with a High Standard pistol but it wasn't a Victor. They did use that medal to market a lot of their pistols.
I didn’t think the Victor ever came with the slant grip. I thought they were always basically 1911 grip geometry. I’m not a High Standard guy either. Mostly a Pardini guy.

I am.from RSA how can I get a magazine for a citation
Nice gun. Is the grip angle about like a Ruger? Weight ? How is this compared to a S+W 41 ? Thanks👍
