Saw and held one of these yesterday at a local store. Wow, I liked it. This one had the thumb safeties and no mag disconnect. It weighed very little and despite its longer barrel was no larger (or thicker, surprisingly) than the 4516 with the Hogue stocks that was also in the cabinet. And it holds one more round than the 3rd Gen mini.
I really thought it was a pretty darn nice gun. I am generally not a fan of striker-fired pistolas, but I could see this one in the holster. =p~
So why are the Compact .45s not up on the S&W website? They've been out for some time now, haven't they?

I looked in the case at first because there was a 4516 in there. I handled that, and noticed that the M&P Compact .45 was the same exact size as the 4516 - but a whole lot lighter and with one extra round in the mag and with a longer (4") barrel.
