Springfield XDS .45 or Glock 36

[patrickcudd]

I love Glocks, and I wish they made a slim .45 or 9/40. As far as width, the XDs is much more slim than the G36. I carry one daily on my Looper Pocket BUG.

the grip on a G36 is too short for my hand. I have yet to mess with an XDs.

The grip on the XDs is shorter than the G36. But for me, this is not a target gun that I will be shooting 1000's of rounds through a year. As long as I can get some sort of grip on the gun, I'm good. It is meant to be easily concealable, and a long or full sized grip makes that much harder to conceal.

Sell them both and look into the m&p models...changeable backstraps.
Or just go with the g30.its got room in the grip

The G30 is better suited for my hand than the G36. Of course a friend of mine who carries a 36 daily also has a 27 and a 33.

As long as you don't get a lemon, the G36 fits the majority of men well enough to be considered if you're in the market for a single stack 45 ACP carry gun.

Not a ton of info on the XDS yet.

FWIW, the XDs has an interchangable back strap. The Shield apparently does not.

One thing the XDs has over the G36 and especially the G30 is a significant difference in concealability.

I think the XDs is a better concealed carry gun but it has not been out that long to work out all the bugs

Why do you think that?

True on the XDS, hadnt thought about that.
g30 hides pretty well for me , its a little fat...but 10+1 of 45, I kinda like
