I am a decent pistol shot; I own a WC CQB, a LB PII and a “Plain Jane” Colt Series 70 all in .45 ACP. The CQB and PII will shoot one ragged hole at 15 yards, the Colt around 3” - there is definitely a quality difference (and certainly a cost difference) between the builds - I got what I paid for. My Colt is a combat build and it shoots like one - no surprise to me. I own the Colt for nostalgia reasons (I carried one in my Army service during the Vietnam Conflict era) - it is a combat weapon deluxe.
