Re: CCW weapon recommendation?

I find "flatness" of the firearm to be the biggest aid in concealment, rather than length of barrel or butt. I carry a FN (Browning) Hi Power in 9mm in a C-TAC IWB tuckable (which is a very flat holster also), and it causes very little printing. The Hi Power does come in .40 S&W -- I have one and like it as well. Just a tiny bit heavier and wider in the slide, (you can feel this if you are a HP fanatic, but its not much difference), 10 rounds instead of 13 in the magazine, but otherwise identical, and very nice gun. Plus you can drop in an EFK Firedragon barrel in .357 Sig, use the same magazines, and have punch similar to the .357 Magnum 125 gr JHP, with more rounds and less flash. Quieter, too.

Have no experience with the others you list, altho I do have a Kahr P-9, and it is very flat also, easily conceals.

A Glock would be very good, and I hear many good things about the XDs, but have no experience with the XD.
Best wishes.
