I carry the XD Sub-Compact .40 everyday. I also own a Glock but i just prefer the XD. For the money its really hard to beat what comes what the package of and xd and also for a small barrell it is accurate.I mean hell i look at it this way ive taken mine to the range many times and within 30 yards i can shoot a very nice spread even do double taps with this pistol so there is no need to carry anything else. Where do you live at i may be willing to meet a range with ya and let u try some of mine out. I have a Walther p22, Glock 27, XD Sub Compact, and if u want to break out the big boy that ive hunted with S&W .500 mag. Cant shoot it at the range though and the only reason i purchased it was because ive always wanted to kill a deer with a pistol.
