I won't rehash all the reasons stated above about the popularity of 9mm 1911's, I'll just say I really enjoy shooting them. I own a couple Glocks, ok for what they are designed to do, but NO soul. I own 2 BHP's, a 1951 and a 1994 Israeli Police turn in, I love the way they feel in my hand and enjoy shooting them. But at the end of the day, there's just something about a 1911. I have several in .45 and these shown below in 9. They are my favorite range toy and a couple are in my carry rotation, the DW Vigil and the Ruger LW CMD 9. Also pictured is a DW Valor Blue and a Colt Competition.
