...and had to get one. Not sure how it compares to the XDm Compact, but I will unequivocally recommend the XDs. It's replaced my usual 9s in the carry rotation -- no additional bulk and a much better caliber.And the XDs doesn't have the recoil or sting that I was expecting out of such a small package. Don't get me wrong, 100 rounds down range and the aggressive checkering on the frame causes my hand to ache and I wouldn't call it a range toy, but it's no worse than the small/pocket 9s that I have. I'd also venture to say that it's equal to or more accurate than the same short barreled 9s. I'd expect the XDm Compact to be the same or even marginally better in both regards.The Annoyed Man wrote:Well, it's a .45. What's not to love?
ETA: I've been so excited about it, I even recently changed my Avatar to reflect my new go-to EDC.
