I had picked up this New Agent in a trade...always wanted one for the collection and it had Novak sights and not the trench sight....the front strap on my Defender is worn smooth after many years...so smooth I no longer get a firm grip with it when shooting it. I had sent it to Clark Custom Gun and they told me it didn't have enough "meat (metal)" on the front strap to checker it.
The New Agent isn't checkered but does have grooves vertically and I do get a better grip and groups with it....basically same size and weight as the Defender so I haven't noticed a difference in carrying it. It doesn't have a true beaver tail like the Defender but it hasn't bit me, which with my fat hands can be a problem..

Thanks, I thought they were the same size. I've had a Defender for several years and really like it. I've got the laser grips on it and am really pleased (regardless of what all the nay-sayers say about 1911s, etc.) 
I used to be one of those nay-sayers. Figured the 1911 was a peice of ancient history. But my last 2 EDC's have been 1911's.Thanks, I thought they were the same size.

Everything I Own Is Paid For
My favorite is my Union Switch & Signal shown here. A reputable gunsmith checked all the parts and declared that it was unused. So, I like it but can't shoot it.
Very nice (then again, all 1911s are nice IMO!!)
I think we made it.

My wife is a CHL holder and shoots most times better than I do. Her first reaction when I brought it home "...let's go out in the ditch and shoot it..."
