If I'm going to carry the weight of a 686 I may as well strap on a Commander size 1911 and get 3 more rounds in a flatter package.
Everyday, 6+ days a week, 8-12 hrs a day, sometimes longer I tried a Kimber pro TLE/RL and as far as a commander size 1911 compared to a 686, the Kimber was a boat anchor! Been there done that.

686 2.5" works for me, may not work for you.

I have a 19 2.5" and it's just to pretty to carry
