I worked at a gun shop in Alaska for years and this was quite obvious. Lay Glock and XD side by side on the counter, have the customer pick each one up and let them determine which fits best. Not even close, XD!Check out the Smith & Wesson M&P as well. I tried all the others and the M&P fit me the best. Go to your local range and shoot all three before deciding.

Yeah, because that happens a lot in 9mm.The XD certainly is heavier. Heck, the XD subcompact is still heavier than the G19. One heavy chunk of steel and plastic. One of these days I'll disassemble the two and weigh parts to try to figure out where all the extra mass in the XD is, vs. the Glock. Other than that, I differ with you on most of the points of opinion or preference.My favorite things about the XD-M Elite 3.8″ are the weight and slide design.

Maybe they permit them to use thinner steel by increasing rigidity.A basic Sig 229 is probably going to cost around $800 new and $650 or so used.
