From what I remember the TRP is the one that was build for the FBI and has the accessory rail built into the frame.

I only know of the rear-sight (Novak vs fully adj) difference.
The TRP was designed as FBI contract sidearm.
I dont think either of them have any accessary rail built into the frame.

Thx Campybob.

The TRP "Operator" does have the rail.

The base TRP does not have the rail.
www.springfield-armory.com/prod-pstl-1911-trp.shtml

There is also a TRP "Pro" (MSRP $2395) which is also without accessary rail.

You can also get the accessary rail on the mil-spec 1911-A1 for a mere $795.

Difference is that the Trophy is a target gun where as the TRP is a defensive/combat type gun. Trophy has adjustable sights target sights, TRP has Novak sights, rear is windage adjustable.

I recall seeing the mil-spec with the rail for $550.  Its being sold as the Mil-Spec Operator.  There was a review of it in one of the gun mags I bought last month and they really liked it.  Here is one on gunbroker.com for $572  www.gunbroker.com/auction/ViewItem.asp?Item=2851959
