Because my new full size 1911 in .45 just didn't fit me and feel right at the range, I wrongly assumed a smaller, lighter Commander wouldn't fit me either and recoil would be difficult to manage in .45.
You know what they say about assuming, right?
I don't need a steel frame 9mm.
This alloy frame .45 Commander shoots extremely well, fits me to a "T", and will get regularly smoked.
I suggest everybody have at least one.
