The only thing I like tight are women. and off to the corner(I hope it's finished)
I think tight is over rated in a 1911, leads to failures. My primary shooter is sloppy and rattles when you shake it, but is still 100% reliable. It has tons of rounds through it and got that way honestly. I can still shoot groups tighter than a whales butt hole with it.
I'm not knockin on those guys, they make damn fine guns. I just can't justify spending a few K on a gun (unless it has that extra "click").
Besides, there are other things I want more than another 1911 right now.
Check out this thread.

This is a very reliable great shooter. I've listed the info from the Les Baer website.
Guaranteed to shoot 2 1/2" groups at 50 YDS
Price point no worse than Wilson Combat.
BAER 1911 S.R.P.©
(Swift Response Pistol)
Comes With Night Sights!
Ultimately, everyone who needs to carry a pistol for tactical use or who keeps a pistol for self defense wants something that's completely reliable, uncannily accurate,powerful enough to deal with any situation, and familiar as an old shoe. That was a tough bill to fill until Les Baer introduced his 1911 S.R.P., an uncompromising single stack performer based on the original Baer S.R.P.© but built on Baer's 1911 NM frame. It's every bit as dependable a performer as the original high capacity S.R.P. but it offers the traditional 1911 frame still favored by many. Features include:
Baer steel NM frame • Baer steel NM slide with front and rear serrations • Slide fitted to frame • Baer NM barrel with stainless match bushing • Baer deluxe fixed combat sight • Baer dovetail ramp type front sight • Lowered and flared ejection port • Baer checkered slide stop • Baer extended ejector • Baer tactical style ambi safety • Baer match trigger • Baer checkered flat mainspring housing • Checkered front strap @ 30 lpi • Fitted and tuned extractor • Beveled mag well • Complete tactical action job • Baer beavertail safety with pad • Baer deluxe Commander hammer and sear • Tritium night sights installed front and rear • Deburred for tactical carry • Bear Coat™ coating on complete pistol for maximum corrosion resistance • Baer Premium Checkered Cocobolo grips • Tuned for total reliability • Test fired with Federal 230 grain Hydra-Shok ammo and Remington Sabre 230 grain H.P. ammo and guaranteed to shoot 21/2" groups at 50 yards • (3) 8-round premium magazines • Special wooden presentation box
