The Commander length 1911s are much more reliable than the compact and sub-compact models. That said, I'm not sure how much benefit a 3/4" shorter barrel and slide are compared to the loss in velocity. I'm average height (5'8" - 170lbs) and have no problem carrying a full size 1911.
P.S. Nice Esmeralda grips on that second Smith, SecurityGeek. Is that bonded ivory? Also, is that a Gunsite Colt Commander with S&W grips on it?

Re: Pictures Of Your Daily Carry
My EDC:

Slightly modified 1978 Colt Series '70, Garrett Industries Silent Thunder Fusion, SOG Trident
With my custom cross draw holster from Dwight's Gunleather. I wear the cross draw holster when I open carry when hunting and doing other outdoor activities on private property.
