Hi Dave, the performance center (hand fitted) are the top guns followed by the champion and then the pro series (production guns with extra attention) the model 108483 is just a standard round butt e series 1911 it is not a pro, champion or performance center gun the 2 buds has are the same gun except the LE model is a qualified professionals discounted package

Dave this will boil down to aesthetics as these series will have similar core configurations and features. The Pro series will give you the best bang for the buck overall. It really will boil down to your actual plan of usage for the pistol. It would take an experienced 1911 aficionado to really identify the series actual differences.
