Light weight 1911 9mm needed?

Does any one make a Light weight alumn frame 1911 with a full size grip? 4 1/4 inch barrel or less in 9mm. All the compacts I looked at have a small grip and my pinky finger hangs off. Thanks

The old pre-70 Colt Commander?

Springfield Armory Range Officer Champion.  Full size grip, 4" Bull barrel in 9mm.  I have one and love it. I even had the slide milled for a Burris FF III

Not cheap.

If you really want light with full size grip look at Sig Sauer P320 X Carry in 9mm. It is the Combat Commander of the 1970's in a polymer grip. 

I do like mine.

Carry gun?  
If so I would strongly consider a striker based fire control firearm.  My carry guns were always 1911's until I took an I.C.E. course from Rob Pincus.  He was also a dedicated 1911 guy until early on in his training career he started to notice about 80% of the failures (either mechanical or operational) were 1911's.  That's when he switched.  There are many very good striker based guns out there, I settled on Springfield XDM's, and have several.  Their compacts all have grip/mag extensions for more capacity and a full grip.

Colt still puts out the Lightweight Commander in 9mm.  Aluminum frame and full-size grip.  $947 at Bud's.

They may have been “1911s”, but I bet they weren’t Colt.
Humerous but on point:

I did some work on a newer Colt Lightweight Commander for a LAPD detective. Great carry gun. Ran perfect and would definitely get the job done. I'd carry one.

Your talking about my carry gun. I need something I can grip also. Not a 1911 but really close. Model 439 (39) S&W. Exact same grip as my 52. Here is a pretty one on GB.

It uses the same holster as my Scandium framed Commander (SC1911) Also S&W

This one is a 1911. Full size grip and aluminum frame. It's a Range Officer.

I picked up the ruger 1911 lightweight commander in 9mm 29 ounces.. Reviews were good. Thanks
