I agree. A GI-spec Rock Island or Springfield might rattle a little, but they'll go "bang" every time and function perfectly with FMJ (and most HP). Lots of reports out there about $800-1,200 Kimbers that have to make multiple trips back to the factory before they're reliable.rx9790 wrote:I have to disagree there. The lower end ones might suffer from accuracy issues at 25+yds but they are reliable, maybe more so than the tight fitted tack drivers at the upper end.I can't say that I'd personally buy a $400-$650 1911 though, it seems that the lower priced 1911's suffer from reliability issues.
