I bought a 1911 at the beginning of the year. I had every intention of buying a Commander size but walked with a full size. Side by side, I just liked the look and feel of the full size better. A full size conceals a lot easier than I thought it would too and it became my full time winter carry.
From a reliability standpoint, you are fine to go with either. You'll loose a little ballastically from the shorter barrel but I don't think its enough to worry about.
All things being equal, the full size or Commander really comes down to which one do you like best and what fits and points best for you.
