Lightweight Frame 1911 Commander???

Was curious if anyone knew of other companies other than Springfield and S&W that make a lightweight frame 1911 Commander. S&W is a scandium frame and Springfield is a forged aluminum alloy.

I believe that Kimber makes a aluminum framed model called the Pro Carry II.
