Baer's build philosophy is very 1960's. Everything is hand filed and hand fit. ONE guy at his shop does nothing but front strap checkering. Most importantly he hard fits his barrels.

Wilson has embraced modern CNC and makes a nearly as accurate gun that is slick but can be disassembled without tools.

If you want something that reminds of you a Clark ... get a Baer.
If you want something that reminds of you a STI that is built right ... get a Wilson.
