It seems any cartridge requiring 7” of barrel to efficiently burn its powder is rimmed and has “Magnum” after the number. Other than sight radius I don’t see a gain with a 7” 1911.
I have a 6” Clark long slide 1911 in 45 ACP and greatly prefer the 5” Gov’t Model length.
I have a 5” 1911 with the same Bomar rib as the Clark 6” pistol and greatly prefer the balance of the 5”. Just input to consider.
