^This.

Gun don't always follow "you get what you pay for." But in the case of a 1911 they do for the most part follow that rule (disregard Kimber). I carry at Springfield XDs .45. It's been a great gun, but I didn't have to spend an arm and a leg. Glocks as well, they're one of (if not the) most reliable polymer framed hand guns out there. They're also not ridiculousness priced.

You can find some reasonably priced guns that are high quality and reliable. But brands like Taurus and Karh are very inexpensive because they don't last as long as other guns. That said, don't be fooled in to thinking a Kimber is a far superior gun just because they cost an arm and a leg.
