Welcome to the team!

What do you think of the HK45c? Which trigger does it have? I've been looking at it as a carry weapon.

I am so incredibly bummed that my MIL is moving to IL.

Here I was, finally have a place where I can actually get NFA Trust going and get SBR's and other cool goodies, and she's moving to IL, land of our dear leader where no Class 3 is allowed.

Thanks!
It's a great pistol. Have the Variant 1 (left sided safety/decocker; DA/SA trigger). SA is excellent. DA.....leaves much to be desired. Always thinking about an LEM conversion, but I just never get around to it.
As for a carry weapon, I initially had the HK45. Fantastic gun, but just TOO big for concealed carry. I would print even with heavy sweatshirts. The only reason why I switched to the 45c. Def better in the concealment department. Plus, I have several 10 round mags with the extended baseplate if I'm in need of the extra capacity.
My only gripe is that it's still fairly heavy. .45ACP ain't light and combine that with a not-so-light pistol, I get droopy gangsta drawers everytime I carry

I was handling a 45c the other day, very nice but a little too small for my hand.
