| Mmmmm....
You could hunt down a used Springfield Armory 1911-A1 G.I. Model for something around that price. Maybe a little more in price but not much.
High Standard has Amrscor of the Philippines make their guns. They're not known for their quality. Springfield Armory used to have some of their 1911s made in Brazil but than again. I've never seen a bad 1911 from Springfield in a loooooonnnng time. Of the two 1911s that I own, one is a Springfield Armory model. The other is a 1970s production Colt Series 80.
If I were you, I'd hold out and wait until I found a good used Springfield gun.
What's the market price for used Springfields in your area.
