I have the same weapon (45c) for my EDC and it conceals very well at the 4 o'clock position in a Tucker Leather IWB.
I carry the longer mag as backup.

My new permit will allow me to carry an XDs, which conceals even better. Can start to carry it on 1-14-13.

This question can only be answered by you. Everyone's body style is different when it comes to concealment. I've seen guys conceal full size Sig P220s and others only able to conceal subcompacts. The answer lies in:

1.) the right holster
2.) the right carry position
3.) the right clothes
4.) your body type
5.) the right belt

I'm 6'3" and 250lbs and I can get away with carrying a G19 or G30SF in a Comp-Tac Minotaur holster or a Remora no stick holster. Other people may vary.
