The only physical therapy that i had was messing with squeeze balls.
First the gel filled type, then the sand filled type.
Tried to shoot my pistol last fall (my 1911). One shot & had failure to eject & dropped my pistol.
Just now trying to get back into it.
Distance varied from 2 yards to 25 yards. Was getting decent groups, but about 4" low at all distances. With both pistols.
4” low at all distances might suggest an issue with your hold on target, as if it was a flinch or similar I would expect the deviation from the point of aim to be worse at farther distances (4” low at 2 yd is so low that you’d likely have to change both front and rear sights to fix that).
Since these pistols are new to you and you mention having had a 1911, are you trying to do a 6 o’clock hold? A number of service pistols are set up where you are meant to “drive the dot”, that is the front post and dot either partially or completely cover your intended point of impact. If you hold below the target they will impact lower than that.
I mentioned physical therapy because when I had my wrist surgery the surgeon at the time said I likely wouldn’t need any. That ended up being quite wrong in my case. I think I ended up going to therapy for about a month, but I needed to in order to get my grip strength and more notably my range of movement back.
