I did the reverse of the OP. I carried a 1911 Commander size Kimber (pro CDP) for years, had a 5" Eclipse for HD. They were great shooters, and yes while they required break in before HP's after break in mine was 100% reliable. What changed it for me was two things. I bought a Glock 19 right before Obama's first term because I wanted a hi-cap pistol around in case the Stalinists gained power again. And every time I shot it, I shot it as good as my 1911. The Glock had been set up with a Lightning-Strike trigger 4 1/2 pds, Titainium guide rod, pver sized mag/slide release and Trijicon night sights. It was a tack driver. They can be damn accurate with a few mods, especially trigger mods. Second my financial situation grew pecarious while the 9mm offerings in SD loads improved dramatically. Now I'm in the Glock only camp (although I may buy an M & P 10 for Bear country). I would suggest you:
1) Look at many of the custom packages on polymer striker fired guns now. The triggers, smoothness, and recoil tamming put them on par with even the highest end custom 1911's and often for less money.
2) Keep in mind, that the entry cost in a good 1911 platform as about 3-$500 higher than something like Glock 19, Sig 320, M & P, and there are tons of upgrades available. Plus the break in cost issue is real. Ammo is not cheap and thanks to Bidenflation is not going down anytime soon.
I just bought a 43x, 10 +1 carry, great trigger, little or no break in, and huge aftermarket. For me, I might buy a couple of 1911's if I hit the lottery, but they would be strictly safe queens if it came to Carry and Home defense. I KNOW my Glocks are going to work when I pull the trigger.
