I can't really think of 1 negative when trying to talk yourself into buy a Commander size 1911.
Weight is a real consideration. The 1911 is an all steel gun so it's much heavier than the modern polymer constucted gun. A quality gun belt and holster will help considerably. I don't really notice the weight unless it's at the end of a long day of carrying. OTOH, weight might be an issue for some. I don't have one yet, but I think a lightweight (alloy frame) 1911 like the Ruger LW Commander would be really nice for cc. I expect to have one some day.

I have a Para-ordinance lightweight commander and carry it quite often.
