I can with the compacts quite well (and I am 5'6", 135 lbs).

If yes, I'll pick one up...

I put lighter springs and did a trigger job on mine and its unbelievable. I cant get over how accurate it is and how easy it is too shoot.

McD I haven't tried to CC my 3" as yet. Even my 2 1/2" SP seems to print on me! The grip size is about 1/2" shorter than the full size and a bit smaller in diameter. Midway is where I picked up my compact grips. When in stock they run a little over $8 without panels and if you need the locator they run a little over $2. The normal locator for the standard grip is the same. The panels are the same that fit the SP grips.

Love the 3" model. Would like to add an XS front tritium sight as well.
