I just picked up an XD9 subcompact to supplement my CCW battery. I normally use a Ruger LCP in a pocket holster, but there are times when I can carry a bigger pistol in an IWB holster. The XD subcompact sits in the hand nicely, and I was surprised how light the recoil was for a small pistol chambered for a service caliber. Having 14 rounds on tap is also a nice bonus. I just ordered a Remora holster for it and I'm hoping this makes a comfortable CCW package.

A lot of people are looking for a first pistol for CCW, and at this point, it seems the XD subcompact would fill that role nicely.
