Compact grip - like it? - XDTalk Forums - Your HS2000/SA-XD Information Source!

Seems to me that the SHORT 10 rounder helps push the hand UP into the trigger guard, which gives a good secure grip. The 13 rounders tend to let your hand feel a little looser and not as secure. I am thinking I like the 10 rounder better.

I like the way my 9sc feels without extended grip way more than with the extended grip

I tend to shoot better with the 10 rounders (go figure...) My hands are small so maybe it just feels more comfortable, probably all mental. I just have to remember there is no Xtension...

better than the Glock 30 which just feels like a cut off grip. I don't have small hands, and I have thick fingers, but still get a good hold with the 10 round mag.

love the compact.. thinking of selling my service.. cause if i need a service.. all i need to do is put in the 13 rd mag

I prefer the 10 rounder for carrying and getting a better grip, but the 13 rounders are nice for the extra few rounds. It's typically my extra mag in the Jeep.

That's an even smaller grip than on the XD45c. They're really not even comparable.

I too prefer the 10 round mags in both the XD9SC and XD45c

Pierce grip extensions should be available for the 10 rd mags hopefully by the first of the yr. They will be selling them direct to the public at first. Call them

thanks for the forum
