Maybe its the way the is positioned in the photo or just my old eyes. It looks shorter than mine. Mine does have the extended threaded barrel. I agree it is a really sweet shooting weapon. 

It is the way it is sitting , also I don't run the thread adapter on mine . According to Taurus website there is not much difference in size by measure . Now it might feel a good  bit smaller in the hand but I don't know .

Compact is 4.90  high                    Full size is 5.44     about 1/2 inch

Compact is 6.70  long                    Full   is       7.06     about 3/8 

Compact is 16;50 oz                      Full   is       17.30    about 3/4  oz

Width is the same for both @ 1.25  

Compact does have an open top slide and optics cut  but I am going to have to get one in my hand to know whether  there is enough difference for me .

I went to the local Palmetto State Armory today. I just like looking at all the new guns. I think the Taurus is an excellent firearm. As for everyday carry I prefer the Taurus TX22 LR or a .22 WMR. My Keltec is the PMR 30 chambered in .22WMR.
