I feel the same. Eight rounds would be plenty for me. I'd really like a more narrow profile for easier and more comfortable concealment. Lighter weight would also be great. The SC slide seems to be very heavy to me. I realize that there are upsides to this, but I doubt I'll need a carry gun to last me 100 years. 90 should do just fine.

Peace,

More flexibility in the barrel to shoot around corners.

Add a manual safety and replace the USA trigger system with a pure single action trigger design.

I'd be on a single stack, slim, XD9SC like white on rice. I would so be there.
As far as the Kahr goes, me no like double action. I like Springfields action, whatever its classified as these days.

although I have had no problems with my finish. i think that would/should be at the top of springfields list of changes. however I don't see it happening if it hasn't already.

Second I would add more or better or different stipling on the grip for better traction without the aid of Agrips or bike tubes,etc,etc.

I agree. The lack of a manual safety was the only negative that gave me some reservations about making the purchase. I have friends who would rather wait & save the money to buy a sig instead for that very reason.

Even though I like the way my XD feels and fits in my hand, I would like to have removable handgrips like on a SIG. This way I would have a more personalized pistol. My extractor was a pain to remove so I think that an access hole would be nice. My Sig P228 is a true DA/SA so it does not have a manual safety, but I do appreciate that it has a de-cocker feature on it. A de-cocker may not be necessary on the hammerless XD, but it makes me glad that there is at least a loaded chamber indicator on it.

A better finish, no overtravel on the trigger and a 9-10 shot single stack 45acp version with a thinner grip and I'd be totally happy!

Better finish, ditch the Glock trigger safety, add a frame mounted thumb safety= perfection
