Again, Dink, the Sig and the Glock are all in-house production guns, made by the same company from top to bottom. The 1911 isn't the same kind of animal at all. It's a design, not a product. You can only compare individual specimens with the likes of a Glock or a Sig. There's no such thing as a 1911, per se. There are guns made according to the 1911 design to one extent or another, and by different makers, the parts of which are usually made by still other companies.
An AR is a design.
