a Les Baer is about $1800  https://champchoice.com/store/Main.aspx?p=ItemDetailOptions&item=C45P2 (https://champchoice.com/store/Main.aspx?p=ItemDetailOptions&item=C45P2)
reviewer didnt address accuracy or any other mods to the gun. How was barrel lockup? group size?
Most of the services from Hayes are cosmetic. No mention of slide tightening etc.
Dave Salyer does an accuracy package for about $700 which includes a new fitted Kart barrel, trigger tune and slide tightened to the frame.

That's very affordable for a Les Baer 1911  :thumbsup:
I would rather buy that than the RIA
