Springfield Armory also is something you might want to consider. They mfg. a Mil. Spec. 1911 and they typically sell, new, for $450-475 in my neck of the woods.
All 3 are good value pistols that perform well. Daly and Rock Island are made in the Philippines using state of the art CNC machines and KBI is the US dist.
Personally I think either of the imports typically have a better fit than SA or for that matter Colt, but that's just my opinion.

But, with that said, if I had observed the problems with Daly's that you have I would not be very positive about them either. However, it does say something for the company refunding your friends money. I know a fella that has sent his Dan Wesson Patriot back 4 times and it is still "*" and they will not replace the pistol or make a refund.
So now we have both good and bad observations and reality is most likely nearer the middle[:D]
