Sakeneko, the real reason I was looking at the S&W is that the guy at the range gave me some scenario of one of the gun purses and how easy it would be to shoot a revolver out of one...and how difficult the slide on a 9mm would be for the same usage.
But in reality, my hands will probably love me more if I avoid the revolvers.
No XD9-SC rental at the range. In fact, there isn't even one in stock, so I can't put one in my hands.
Maybe the right starting point is to figure out if I can conceal the gun I already like. I haven't owned the XD for long but everytime I try something else, I feel like I'm coming back to an old friend when I return to the XD.
That said, I've only tried 2 semi-autos, the one being the Kel-Tec. I'm curious about that Glock 26 and wonder if I can rent that one.
Trashcan-man, do you think the XD-SC is about the same size as the Glock 26??
(Give me a year, and I bet I have the start of a small armory.
In two years, I may be accessorizing my pistol along with my shoes.
