Which One?

I was just about to purchase a 9mm Sub-Compact for CC and range time, but I started to think about the 45 Compact instead. Besides caliber size, is there a difference in frame size? If so, do the you the 45 will be too large for CC?

I just checked out Springfield's website and noticed there is a difference in size, but still not sure about 45 or 9

Yeah, I know. It is really not much of a difference. Ballistically too. I just figured I'd stir the pot a little.

Yes the 9 SC is smaller and can be easier to hide. However it just depends how you plan to carry and if it get hot where you are.

The 45C is a larger pistol, with an inch longer barrel and larger frame. I think it boils down to what caliber you feel most comfortable with and how well you can conceal the larger pistol. I've got the 45C, but plan to buy 9 Tactical for Target and a 9sc for warm weather carry. My .02 cents.
