Glock 30SF or a 27 since you shoot .40 already

Ok, I know you said compact 1911. I have and love my 1911s but they are range shooters and tinker guns in my use. For carry ans serious shooting I have Glocks, as do you apparently. My favorite is the Glock 30SF. I know the 36 and new 30S are all the rage but I prefer the larger slide. The SF frame is a great fit and feel for me too.
Since you have the Glock 22 you could consider a 27 so you have ammunition and magazine interchangability. I personally believe the 27 is a handful little cannon but if you shoot .40 already that is a real consideration. I prefer a 26 in the sub-compact size if I'm want something a bit smaller than the 30SF.
Not a 1911 recommendation but one that you should consider for practicality.
