Also look up Rock island Armory, damn good pistol for the money. Basic pistol can be found for $425 NIB.
Regent 1911 can be had for aprox $329 it is well made pistol, made in Turkey by the same factory building Benelli's. My only gripe with the Remington R1 is it was supposed to be a faithful reproduction of the original 1911 just like the Springfield,they get it 98% correct and they screw up the slide marking etc !!! We have been making 1911 for over a 100 years and with modern forgings and CNC equipment a low price tag doesn't make it any less reliable then my Colts! With proper break-in some rounds down range I would trust any of the sub $500 1911's.
