I'm very happy to hear that the 9mm 1911s, in both the Govt and Commander sizes, run so well. I've owned many Govt sized .45s but never a Commander or any 1911 in 9mm. I found an old new Dan Wesson Valor Commander in 9mm that I'm looking to get on the range after the 10 day waiting period is up here on the Left Coast. Picked up some 10 round Wison Combat Elite Tactical mags too. I appreciate all the input that all of you have contributed to this post!
