My choice in CCW
I have a Kimber custom II that I shot a 250 with on my CC license.Don't much like a Glock (not that it isn't a great handgun) they just don't feel right in my hand. They feel too much like I am holding a 2x2 in my hand,and the grip angle seems all wrong.A 1911 just points more natural to me.A buddy of mine just bought a Springfield XD40 and that thing feels nice and points well, just another option out there. :)
My only gun at the moment is a springfield 1911. Love this thing. Its a blast to shoot. Need to get a beaver tail on it asap. Planing to do a little trigger work on it this weekend.
But for me its just to big and heavy to CC. Think I'm gonna pick up a XD-9 SC. Any opinions? Also please don't get into caliber wars here. :)

I highly suggest the XD9SC, it shoots beautifully and fits my hand like a glove. If you handle a Glock 26 first, then the XD, you will really be sold. Add reliability, pointability, and bit lower price on top of that, and it's the XD, no question.

I have to admit, I felt that the XD subcompact I fired felt like it had less recoil than the full size model. And it is pretty accurate too. I think if they offered it in a single stack, I would be more interested in it.
snuffaluff,
I've heard good and bad things about the Baby Eagles, but I say if you like it, go for it.
