The commander uses a full length "GRIP" frame and has a dust cover shorter than that of a full (government) size Frame by 3/4 of an inch.

This is conflicting info. One post says it used full size or standard frame the other says the dust cover is shorter. A shorter dust cover is what I consider a mid size frame. A small frame is a shorter grip and dust cover, ala officer model.
Which is it? |

SGB is correct. The standard Colt Commander has a full sized frame the same size as a Govt. model; however, the dust cover is shorter. There is a slight internal difference in how deep the area is releived where the recoil spring guide sits also as I recall. Also seems to me I remember a difference in the bbl configurations between the Govt and Commander. JD
