Shield me from evil....

[pony up]

I have been carrying my Springfield XDs 9 for the past couple of weeks as it has gotten hot and humid. I usually carry with the pinky extension but this year I am using the extended magazine with the full size grip. It may print more but I feel a lot more secure with my grip. I also am changing the slim grips on my DW Guardian to regular as I am not shooting the slims as well as I would like. This pistol in 38 Super should be more accurate than my ECO was in 9. I think the difference is my grip is not consistent as the frame is smaller diameter than any of my other 1911s. I have not had a rust problem but noticed that after several days in the holster the XDs is looking quite dry forward on the slide. The WC Spec Ops 9 with the fat double stack magazine has made me very aware of how tiny the single stack frames feel, especially the hideout guns with a nubbin to hang on to. My large hands are not a good match. I like a larger gun as at some point it may turn onto a club or a rock.
