GI 1911 autos for reliability

Im in the market for a 1911 .45 auto in the lower price range. The most basic models are what im looking at right now, and the 315-350 dollar Rock Island Armory Mil Spec looks promising. I only read one review and it was favorable, but i would like some more input. Are these guns good for the money, and if not what low price models/makes are? My biggest concern is RELIABILITY, it has to go bang everytime. Ill be shooting nothing but 230 hardball, so hollowpoints wont be a concern. Should i pick one of the RIA 1911's up or look elsewhere?

    I dont know if you just prefer one of these guns or not.But you can buy a nice Charles Daily 1911 brand new for that price.And they will shoot Hollow points or whatever you feed them.They have proven themselves to be reliable attractive pistols.

    Good Luck.
