Hi Brent and welcome. It is the same Pistol. The price likely rose due to stock level reduction. I don't know why the description changed but - Actual pistol details: It features a stainless-steel frame with a carbon steel slide, beavertail grip/Ambi thumb safety, G10 diagonal flat-bottom grips, and a rear battlesight with fiber optic front. The slide features top slide serrations with serrated rear and front cocking serrations. It also utilizes a stainless match-grade barrel. Cheers, stay safe and enjoy!

Hi Brent, the CQB Elite has a Carbon Steel frame and a Carbon Steel slide. It has Battlesight with fiber optic front sight & G10 Diagonal flat-bottom grips. Details here >>> https://wilsoncombat.com/handguns/1911-handguns/cqb-elite.html I'm not sure why the price went up, but it is not due to stock levels. MSRP is $4244. Per Bud's FAQ - "Our website updates every 20 minutes, 24/7, with our current inventory and replacement cost. We do not price our guns manually based on our cost in each, rather we use a live download from manufacturers and distributors to set our price based on our current replacement cost. As our cost changes, the corresponding website price of each make/model will change up/down accordingly. Although our profit margin remains unchanged, our advertised prices will change frequently, sometimes several times per day." . With that being said, inspect the gun when it arrives at your FFL, and if it's not to your liking, you can refuse it and have it sent back for a ref
