I have a Kimber TLE/RL II and haven't had any issues with it. Not saying it's a great 1911, but I also haven't experienced any of the bad things that I've read about on the internet. The only thing I hate about it is that Kimber only comes with a 1 year warranty, whereas most or every other manufacturer has a lifetime warranty. That can be a deal breaker for some people.

For that price range, I would go with a SA MC Operator or a TRP. If it is your first pistol I understand the allure of buying new, but don't hesitate to buy used or secondhand if the gun is in good condition and you come across a good deal. Guns aren't generally like cars where the first owner can beat it to sh!t then gave it a good washing before selling leaving the next owner with all the problems. It either works or it doesn't and as long as it has a good finish, then you're good to go. I wish I knew that when I started buying guns.
