concealability of colt defender vs lwt commander
Anybody out there have both a colt defender and lwt commander? I am interested in knowing if there is that much difference in concealability in a IWB holster. Does the grip length really make that much difference? Is one more comfortable to carry than the other?

To me grip length does come into play.
I like a commander length barrel, but also got a shorter grip length with the Para P-13.
Many folks wouldn't notice it isn't a full length frame, but its almost as short as an officers frame, has a commander length barrel though (4-1/4").
The shorter frame is one thing that sold me on it (conceals nicely).
As long as both Colt's are reliable, I'd opt for the smaller one (for carry).
