Re: Pondering an XDs

The Wall wrote:I have the XD 9mm Sub-Compact 3" and the XDM 9mm 4.5" and both are fantastic guns. I'm very accurate with both and have had zero failures after shooting hundreds of rounds. My wife usually carries the sub compact and I occasionally carry the XDM. My main carry is a Springfield EMP 9mm or Ruger SR1911 .45ACP. You can't go wrong with an XD in my opinion.
Neither one of those guns is what the OP is interested in.

Re: Pondering an XDs

Except at 24oz unloaded, it's not a light gun. A Glock 19 with 15rnds probably weighs less loaded.

Re: Pondering an XDs

I had a couple of the XDs 45s when they first came out. I really enjoyed them, but the reality was with 5-6rnd capacity and weighing more than a Glock, they didn't fill any niche for me. They were hugely popular when they first came out because of the big caliber in a little package, but I'd much rather carry a snub nose if I'm going to limit myself to 5-6rnds. And a snub nose weighs half the weight.
