Those xds's must have good and bad batches. I can't get my little brothers .45 to do **** for accuracy. And thats taking time to aim down the range and be sure its on target. Now if i shoot the whole mag, i surely cant get it to hit much. Maybe its just too much in a small frame for my small hands.

Both my shields (9mm and .40), i dont seem to have any problem with. Maybe it's the trigger pull, maybe its the grip, or maybe its just the .45 in a small frame. No matter what I try to do with it, it just doesnt work well enough for me to consider it as my carry weapon.

IMO, if i wanted something of such caliber and frame as everyday carry. I'd have to chose my more reliable, more accurate .357 snubby. I seem to have way better luck with it than i do with the xds. But as i said, it could be a number of things that just "isn't for me".

PS: Now if they ever consider making a 9mm (maybe .40, but i dunno). Then you may well see me grab one.
