Normally, I’d agree with that. But my experience of handling (not shooting) a friend's P365XL lent a different impression than that. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

That said, if I were going to buy a NEW Glock, I’d give both the 19x and the 45 a really hard look. And you can get 15 round mags that flush fit the single stack 45.
TAM, the 45 isn't a single stack, it's a double stack 17 frame. Are you thinking of the 43X/48?
Yes, I meant the 48. Oops!

Re: Which Glock to buy?

I have a 17, 19, and 26....all Gen4. The 19 IS easier to conceal than the 17, but not by a ton. I have successfully concealed my 17, but I’m more likely to OC it. The 19 is pretty much my EDC. As a range gun, I much prefer the 17....although the 19 shoots just fine. It’s just that the slightly larger grip size and longer slide of the 17 give a better sight radius, and it’s slightly softer shooting. Just as if I HAD to narrow my ARs down to one, I’d choose my 20” A4; if I had to narrow my Glocks down to just one, I’d probably choose the 17.

That said, if I were going to buy a NEW Glock, I’d give both the 19x and the 45 a really hard look. And you can get 15 round mags that flush fit the single stack 45.
