Sorry if this has been covered.
With regard to buying used, are the Hillsdale built Baers more desirable than the Le Claire built?
If so, Why?
How about build quality?

1911forum.com has a Les Baer sub forum that may answer your question if nobody here knows.

The Le Claire built Les Baers are made 100% in the Philippines, then sent to Le Claire for rebranding and metal finish. LOL. Not.

Should be no difference. They were also built in PA, and Rock Island. I've seen the operation at three of the locations and there are virtually no differences.
