I'm not up on IDPA rules, but in USPSA any of your guns will do fine. The Beretta or Glock will work in Production or Limited-10 with 10rd mags or Limited if you have bigger mags. The compensated 1911 will put you in Open class with the race gun guys, but is a blast if you are just starting out. I'm sure IDPA has a place for you too. You can shoot more than one class.
My advice is to find a match near you, bring your guns, gear, and ammo and shoot. All clubs will have a new shooter orientation where the rules are explained. You will find that your fellow competitors are very friendly and helpful and are willing to loan gear such as mag pouches, etc. to help you out. Go to uspsa.org for more info. They have a search function where you enter your zip code to find matches near you.
GSSF has matches for Glock owners, but Glocks work just fine for any match. Go with whichever you are most comfortable with.
Welcome to a fun sport. Good luck and good shooting!
