I can understand the reasoning for not allowing revolvers but, the 1911? Wtf, it's a semi-auto class.

The only things I can think of might be:

1) Trigger Control Issues - the 1911 being a much easier trigger pull and the resultant issues with that (i.e. people firing when they shouldn't or don't want to)... Maybe they want to teach trigger control a little differently...

2) While a 1911's capacity is larger than a comparable revolver, it's still not as good as a comparable Glock/Sig, etc. which can get 17+ rounds in one mag.

3) Drawing - Maybe they have some stats about AD's when people not skilled in 1911's try to draw in "condition 0"
