I work for the largest FFL in the SE doing gun shows. We go to a show with about 90 tables, but I'm specifically in the Springfield section. When the XDe was first introduced, plenty of XDs lovers asked about it. We sold some when they finally became available, but the initial interest has passed. While it's a nice gun, the top end is about 1/4"-3/8" taller to allow room for the hammer. Now it's not so compact when you lay the XDs over the XDe. Basically they came out with the XDe for the old timers who like a hammer, but I still sell more XDs vs the XDe because of the size difference. GARY
