according to the hk web site there isnt much difference in size between the 2. im looking to conceal one of them but they both look like they might be alittle bigger then what im looking for and i think i would probally just do the full size since its not much bigger at all
anyone have a side by side comparison picture?

no pic sorry but I looked at both and placed them upside down on the glass cabinet at my local fun shop. Resting on the sites and with the slides even, the HK45c was about .75" shorter in heigth and length. Width was about the same. I bought a HK45c and plan to use it for CCW.

My HK45C is definitely smaller than the HK45 I had. Matter of fact I ended up getting rid of my HK45 in favor of getting my HK45c for conceal carry. It is close in size to a Glock 19 but by far more comfortable to hold and carry. I got a Comp-Tac C Tac for it and I use USP compact flat floor plate mags and it conceals very well. If you are planning on conceal carry with it then I highly recommend the HK45C.

I think the biggest affect on the size is the extended baseplates for the HK45c magazines. Someone here posted a good comparison with and without the extended plates. The HK45c seemed much shorter with the flat ones.
