I have owned two loadeds, and currently own a TRP. It kinds of depends on what you want feature wise. The TRP has some more bells and whistles on it. I think it's hard to beat a Loaded considering what you get for the price.

Loaded "Target" Adjustable rear tritium is almost everything a TRP is without having a light rail.
If you want the light rail then the TRP?

Got a TRP and love it.

Seems to me the jump up from "Loaded" to the TRP model is worth the extra few hundred $$ they are asking: checkering, ambi safety, etc...

Lightweight Operator...
Great trigger, light, and badass.
The slide feels like it's rolling on glass (yeah it's that smooth)

I like the TRP full rail. I had one for a bit, and traded it off a while back. I really want a pair of them. Some day I'll have them.

If you can get the TRP for $1100ish, do it. Maybe even 1200.
The loaded is a GREAT deal though, and they only run like 7 or 800 I believe.

I got this Loaded model several years ago, bought used. I installed the ambi safety, rosewood grips, and got rid of the FLGR in favor of a GI-type setup. It runs great and is very accurate.
My brother recently picked up a Range Officer and says it is extremely accurate.

I have a loaded parkerized, I wish I'd saved up a bit more and bought one with a rail because now I have one of the Surefire light rail adapters on it.

I'd get the RO cause it lacks front slide serrations.

I like the TRP, but due to the front cocking serrations I'd rather just get a Mil-Spec and send it in to a custom shop and have it worked over for the difference in $$$.
