[QUOTE="HonkyTonkHale, post: 2683625, member: 34055"] I have found that here is definitely a difference between the high end and low end 1911s when it comes to fit and finish. The tolerances do affect accuracy, but reliability is pretty solid on all of the government style options I have owned and shot. I agree to avoid any Officer (3" barrel) as it was never designed for that configuration. I have owned both Kimber and Springfield Officer's model, and both were unreliable. The only real dud that I have owned was a Para Ordnance double action. It was dumb of me to get something so different from the original design, and the thing was so loud se that it would rattle.
