I don't have extensive experience with the 1911. I can say that all but 1 that I've shot (some for only a few mags) have had at least one feeding problem every time I've been around them.
I've never had a feeding problem with a Glock and I've put a lot of rounds in 10mm, 40, 45, and 9mm through a lot of different Glock platforms.
Tight 1911's need to be maintained much more. I've never had a "loose" one so they may not require as much maintenance. Glocks need to be loaded...and that's about it.
The 1911 trigger is great, the Glock can't touch it. The 1911 has character, the Glock doesn't. The Glock is reliable, the 1911 is...with the right ammo, the right mag, when clean, etc...
