[QUOTE="cody6766, post: 2396770, member: 26511"] Shack. I had a G23 that I traded for an XDS 9 a little while back because the 23 was just too thick to fit comfortably IWB. I was shocked the difference between the two felt so significant. The shape between the two pistols is close enough for me to carry my XDs in my Glock White Hat hybrid holster, so it's an apples to apples comparison. I used the same holster, so that couldn't account for the difference. That's also good news for you because you can 'test drive' both guns using a 9mm or .40 cal glock hybrid holster to see what you like best. There wasn't really an apparent difference between the 26/27 and the 19/23 IWB either. Sure, the handle is a little longer, but it's pretty insignificant under a shirt. I'd recommend you try both out before committing to one size. The larger frame is still easy to hide as long as you're okay with the thickness and the longer grip makes shooting the gun a lot more pleasant. With regard to functionality between the two guns, I really noticed no difference aside from preferring the trigger and grip angle of the XDs. The grip safety is REALLY easy to engage and the sights are better IMO. Also, not that you can't add one to the Glock, the front fiber optic sight is a nice bonus on the XDs. This is really a Chevy/Ford discussion and one you can't lose in the end. You really should find the two guns and stuff them in your waist band to see which one wins. [/QUOTE]
