Bill, I bought a 1911 as my first handgun for exactly the same reasons you site. It was simply the gun I enjoyed shooting the most. If you're a basic shooter don't get too caught up in the incredible quantity of mods available for the gun, just buy a good name brand one and shoot it. A lot.  I bought a basic Springfield Mil-Spec 1911 and I'm pretty certain that the gun is more accurate than I am.
