If my memory is correct, in the inexpensive side of 9mm lw commanders, you have Colt, Ruger & Springfield.
Between several of my friends I've had experiences with all of them.
I also have a gov. .45 from Ruger, and the Ruger is the one I'd recommend, mainly for the warranty.
The only real difference is sights and grip panels between the three.
That said, the Dan Wesson 9mm Valkyrie Commander is much nicer than those three, albeit at $1750 ish.
