Welcome to the site Firedawg. Havent had any experience with colt but you might want to go to the colt section and ask around. Good luck.

My Colt Defender is a .45 acp and it has been perfect. I never saw a 9mm Defender.
There are many choices for a 9mm in subcompact these days. You won't have any problem finding one to suit you.

i own a 1991 compact.the recoil is not much greater than a full sized 1911.inmo there is no better choice in 1911 style pistols than colt.i own several colts but all are in 45 acp,i can't comment on the 9mm version.
