M&P45c vs M&P9c - Pics
Just thought I'd post a few pics (not the greatest quality). I picked up my 45c earlier today. Did not shoot it yet, but I did set side by side with my 9c. Not too much of a difference in size. So I thought I'd share.
The 45c, with the small back strap, feels almost like the 9c with the medium back strap. The pinky extension mag on the 9c makes the handle just as long as the 45c handle with the flush mag.

I own the M&P45C and just got rid of my M&P9C due to the negligible difference in size and the fact that i'd rather carry a .45.
I never much cared for shooting the 9C and it handles and feels very differently from the full size M&P9, however, the 45C is an amazing shooter and feels very similar to my full size M&P45 when shooting.

I have both the M&P45c and the M&P9c, and I like them both. The M&P9c is better for carry, IMO, and my wife has taken a liking to it. The M&P45c is my house gun, and I am now carrying my 642.
I just got a 10 round magazine for my M&P45c and an X-grip adapter...I only ordered one set to see how I would like them, and I do...very, very much. The 8 round mag with the finger tip floor plate was fine, and just fit my grip, but this 10 round mag with the X-grip feels so much better. Plus, it holds 2 more rounds!
I'm going to order some more of them.

I picked up a 9C, having both a full size and 45C. Keeping everything stock, the 9C to me was noticeably smaller and easier to carry. With the Apex sear and plunger, the 9C also has a better trigger pull than my 45C, which also has the sear and plunger. For some reason the 45C did not turn out the same as the 9C. There's a hint of travel after the initial take up. The 9C breaks clean and is really very good IMHO. I love them both, but each serves a different purpose. All of them are quite accurate.

I also have both and like them both. Yes the 9c is a little easier to conceal (I do have a crimson trace laser grip sight on mine) but the 45c shoots as well if not better. Really a surprise to me but it is what it is. I shoot IDPA with a full size 9 and that is perfect. All have Apex trigger jobs. The 2 carry guns have the carry kit the fullsize 9 has the competition....Wow, light trigger...

Is the 45C grip any thinner than the MP9C grip?

I believe the handles have the same thickness (1.2" wide). But the 45c handle is deeper in length slightly.

IMO the 45c has the most comfortable grip in the M&P line, it just fits my hand perfectly. Watch for a 45 Shield next.
