I looked at a used 1911SC, commander style, this afternoon. The slide/frame fit was very loose.
Is this normal?

No!

I have Scandium Commander that has had a little over 1000 rounds thru it and it is still fairly snug.

My Sc Commander slide to frame fit is not as tight as my DW CBOB, but it is certainly not loose. I also have a S&W PD that has a very tight slide to frame fit.

Best regards.

My Gunsite has a pretty tight slide/frame fit.

I have an sc and the fit is good and tight and it shoots real nice. The GI unit I qualified with sounded like a can of marbles when you pulled it from the holster, and you couldn't hit the sand pile let alone the target. Sounds like a lot of dry/dirty shooting.

Noooo... It should be tight.

Mines a little loose in comparison to my SA champion which doesn't have any wiggle at all. My SW will wiggle a little if unloaded, but you have to grab the slide and wiggle pretty hard and it only moves a little.

I have the 1911 PD and it's not loose at all.

I have the 1911 PD and it's not loose at all.

I just ordered a new 1911PD from Buds. It should be delivered next week.

Both my 1911SC and 1911PD are not loose fitting.

My SC is gootntite.
