I know this is a tough question, but can I expect the same fantastic reliability with an entry level Colt, Springfield, or Ruger 1911 that I have gotten with my HK? If not, I don't know if I can make the change as it is my main home defense firearm.
my advice is I would never trade in a proven reliable HD gun for a new unproven gun.

I would keep the excellent HK AND buy the sexy 1911. Only until I validate the new gun would I consider selling off an older one.

As far as your question of reliability, I have a 'entry' Colt commander 1911 and its been reliable out of the box for many years of use. I recall only 1 jam when I first purchased it that never repeated since.

FWIW: I would not sell an HK.
