I'm selling a super cool Les Baer Thunder Ranch Special 1911, 1.5" Groups, bought in 2016 with about 250 rounds through it. As you can see by the photos, it's very clean and is extremely accurate, as well as being a very pleasant shooter. Not finicky in the least, and very comfortable in hand. I put some VZ Alien grips on and have the original wood grips intact/unused. Included are 3 7-round mags, and all the paperwork that came with it. I have about $2500 into this gun and it is in the hard to find 1.5" group model, known for its legendary accuracy.
Other information: The Les Baer Thunder Ranch Special is a serious, no-nonsense self-defense pistol conceived by Clint Smith, Director of Thunder Ranch, one of the premier training facilities dedicated to teaching people how to survive in a tough, unfriendly world. Clint Smith cares about good guns and he's concerned that his students are equipped with reliable, accurate guns they might one day have to trust with their lives. That's why Clint Smith approached Les Baer about developing a dependable, combat-proven 1911 with which he and his students could feel completely confident. So, Clint Smith specified the features he wanted and Les Baer built it. The result is a distinctive yet practical 1911 that's ideal for personal defense and a source of pride for the owner. 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 • LBC deluxe fixed combat rear sight with Tritium inserts • Baer dovetail front sight with tritium insert • Lowered and flared ejection port • Baer checkered slide stop • Baer extended ejector • Combat extended safety (extended ambi for left handed shooters) • Baer aluminum match trigger • Baer deluxe Commander hammer and sear • Crisp 4 lb. pull • Baer tuned extractor • Baer beavertail grip safety with pad • High checkered front strap at 30 lpi • Flat checkered mainspring housing at 20 lpi • Beveled magazine well • Polished feed ramp and throated barrel • Complete pistol rounded for tactical use • Blued finish on complete pistol • Deluxe special slim line grips with thunder Ranch logo (not available with extended ambi safety) • (3) Stainless steel 7-round premium magazines • Special Thunder Ranch logo engraved on slide • Special serial numbers with "TR" prefix Yours for $1750!Cheers, Eric

Hey guys!!! Long time no see! I have this listed on Calguns but would really like to sell it to someone from the Fire, if possible. If anyone is seriously interested PM me and let's work something out! I'm looking for cash mostly to offset a couple custom straight razor buys... I am interested in buying a Ruger Alaskan, however, so if someone has one there could be a deal there. I also have a bunch of Federal American Eagle 230 gr target ammo that Les recommends for break in. There is a small idiot scratch that is hardy noticeable but otherwise this is super clean, and is the very desirable 1.5" groups model! Eric

I forgot to mention I'm including $225 worth of Federal American Eagle 230 grain ammo that Les Baer recommends using to break in his 1911s. Altogether, it's almost $2750 and you get a $1000 discount @ $1750. Cheers, Eric
