From my limited 1911 experiance, I'll offer you this. I've owned only 3, a Springfield Loaded, S&W SC Commander, Kimber UCII. The S&W was by far the most accurate, tightest best fitted gun of the 3. My Loaded needed a bushing fitted to the slide and barrel in order for it to shoot groups, it also had a loose extactor that would clock on me, not to mention it stuck out of the slide. My Kimber has never missed a beat since day one, but had two issues that I fixed, or eliminated. The S&W needed no tweaking what so ever!
(YMMV!)
Good luck picking a winner! And check it out in person if possible, I'd never bought the Springer if I had seen it first.
