I bought this for my off duty carry. My duty weapon is MP40, so I selected this weapon specifically so that the manual of arms will be the same. Before the purchase, I thought that shorter grip may make the pleasant shooting MP40 a little uncomfortable, but the compact is almost as soft shooting as the full size brother. After little practice, I'm getting better score on my qualification with Compact model than with full size weapon. Imagine that.
I hear lot of complaint about the magazine without finger extension, but I shoot better with the magazine without the finger extension. One call to S&W customer service, and they sent me couple of the base plate without finger extension free of charge. Great customer support.
My only complaint is that the 10th round is hard to load in the magazine, and that the fully loaded magazine is a little hard to seat.
Overall, I highly recommend MP40c to anyone thinking of carry weapon.
