So getting the advice on the Springfield loaded and SR1911 is good. I'm leaning to the Loaded Stainless Steel. The best I can find it, so far, is around $750 at budsguns.
Buy a used one, baw. If you know where to look, they come around quite often with "only 20 or so down the pipe". Just do a visual inspection(make sure it's not beat to shite) and function test (make sure it'll rack, cycle a round, and dry fire).
Anyway, the point is, you can get one of these guns that list over $700 new for what your budget range is.
ETA: Her's one that sold for $590 on bud's guns...

How's this for $675?
A S&W E Series 5 inch Stainless for $675. Yes, I get the professional discount.

I had a FNP, great gun, I sold it due to cost of ammo, this was back at the height of the hysteria.
I've regretted it ever since.
I did sell it used for more than I paid new.
Thanks Obama/NRA :)...

Damn good deal. I own an E series myself (check avatar) and think it's a very handsome look. I also think the fish scale serrations are the most usable on any pistol.
Don't be discouraged by the external extractor. Mine has never had an issue with it.

I have a Springfield Champion 1911 commander size.
I say this because the trigger on this gun sucks. One of the best things on a 1911 is the trigger. However mine sucks. I will have to rebuild it at some point.

I own a FNX 45 and love it. Its as accurate as a 1911 but features double stack magazines for a 15rd capacity. Very ergonomic and comfortable to me. I've had zero issues with it and it stays next to my night stand so I can sleep well at night.

I gave it some thought and decided to hold off of getting a 1911 until I can get the one I really want. (A Kimber Raptor II) So I decided on getting a Springfield XD Mod 2 45 Sub-Compact. I found one at a local shop that was on sale for right around $500. It's a good shooting little gun and holds 13 rounds in the extended mag.

I have a G21 and a G30 SF. Both are more accurate (and according to my wife, more reliable) than I am.
