The M&P 40 C makes a heck of a little brother to the full-sized one. It is enough smaller to carry much better, if you don't mind giving up a little capacity and velocity. The full-size magazines work in it also.

Is the .45 large than the .40?

Any thoughts on which one is better shooter?

My M&P .40 shoots .40 better than my M&P .45, and the M&P .45 shoots .45 better than the M&P .40. I know, silly answer.

Seriously, I've never had them to the range at the same time, so can't really compare, other than to say they both make me very happy with their performance.

As others have said, the .45 is a little longer and heavier, but is as nicely proportioned and comfortable in the hand as the 9mm/.40.
