I have one and I have never had a bit of trouble with it. Have put several hundred rounds of various types of ammo through it without any problems.

I've only worked on 2 of them. Both had the bushing hole in the slide reamed so big, an oversized bushing had to be welded up and refit to make either shoot into an 8" circle at 25 yards...YMMV

They always functioned fine though...Never the first jam, per the owner

For that kind of money, you could get into a nice Rock Island Armory … I've never seen one of those with out of spec parts
For a little more, you could probably find a nice used Ruger SR1911

Taurus quality is hit or miss and your resale value will be crap.i've seen Remington/para 1911's around $550 on sale recently that would be my pick.alot of people swear by the rock island guns also

If I had a $550 budget, I would pick up a Springfield Armory mil spec or like Gundoc said, try to find a Ruger SR1911 as cheap as I could get it.

Look @ American Tactical Imports (ATI). I bought one last year for around 330.00 and it has not missed a beat. Fit & finish are fine also.
