OK I'm not disputing that the 1911 isn't an absolutely KATN handgun, but does it really deserve a class of its own?
Example, USPSA has a Production Class which seems to be the everything other than 1911 (and CZ and Witness and BHP).
IDPA segregates the 1911 by class even though 9mm Grocks and Berettas aren't scored minor like IPSC, it seems like the 9mm DA shooters and SA .45 shooters would have a level playing field.
