[QUOTE="GlobalMan, post: 893198, member: 9728"] Indeed it is a good idea to shoot a few before purchasing. Rex I would also recommend giving the XDS a try if you can. When you look online the differences in dimensions all seem so close and insignificant, but when you handle them you will notice quite a bit of difference between them. Then, when you fire them, you'll quickly realize which triggers you hate or like, another factor. After going back and forth between all the single stacks I chose the XDS in the end, which I didn't expect to like so much. When testing out the others, these were my personal conclusions -Glock 43: Didn't like the feel in hand, didn't like grip angle, terrible trigger like all Glocks, 6 rounds. Wasn't able to be real accurate with it. -Sheild: Nice gun overall, but I hate M&P triggers. A smaller point- I find it odd looking. -Walther PPS M2: Excellent gun, super well made, best ergonomics. I just found it a little more bulky than the others, especially being 6 rounds. Should have been 7 at that height. I would go for it without question if slightly smaller or if 7 rounds. -LC9s: Super slim, very smooth and snag free, good overall, just the trigger is a little lighter than I want, and I didn't like the feel in hand. -XDS: Felt good in hand, was crazy accurate for me at distances well beyond intended use, trigger is acceptable, holds 7 rounds. Just was the overall best for me when considering the factors I wanted. It's important to give a few a try, or at least handle all of them, and dry fire. There are differences in ergonomics, bulk/size, capacity, trigger feel, accuracy (personal and the gun) etc. [/QUOTE]
