been doing a ton of researching , handled the two contenders ....shield being the other one .
couldn't find a bad word about either , the XDs felt better, I really like the full size XD's and side by side the XDs is a nicer gun slightly, no safety.....well the grip but you dont even know that is there , so that's the way I went .....the 9mm is supposed to be a lot softer than the 45, I watched 100 video reviews and not a bad word really about 9 or 45 , I'm going with 124 +p HST
