    Default XD45 Compact - Seen one?

    I think I'm going to go with the XD45 compact for a carry gun.

    Went to Targetmaster and they didn't have any. Anyone seen one in their travels to local gun shops?

    Opinions: Good pistol to carry for someone my size (skinny dude)? I plan to go with an IWB setup.

    No personal experience with it, but I love my XD40, and have heard tons of good stuff on the XD45compact. My roommate is a skinny dude...and boy can he hide anything. Your guys' clothes just hang off your body the right way. He has been carrying his S&W 325PD 4'' revolver (.45 ACP) at 1:00 iwb totally concealed, and he isn't even wearing extra big clothes.

    Here is a pic of my XD 45C beside a XD 40SC and a full-size 1911. I have a Comp-tac IWB and it is easily concealable even in just a T-shirt

    Seen one, have one, love it. Try King's Shooters Supply. I was in there last week and IIRC Roger had at least one at the counter. They're in KoP.

    Tanners has them in stock.

    I'd highly recommend the Don Hume 715 IWB holster for $22 it's the best leather holster you can find.

    I should charge a finders fee...lol

    French Creek Outfitters in Phoenixville had a XD45 last week when I was there. Easy to get to from West Chester too. http://www.frenchcreekoutfitters.com/ Haven't shot a XD45, but my friend's XD9 is a great shooting gun.
    You called down the thunder, well now you've got it!

    My friend bought the XD45 compact tactical with the 5" barrel. It feels really good in the hand. He doesn't conceal though, so I can't comment on that.

    Wow, you must have a really good holster. In order to conceal my XD, I usually have to wear pants too. :-)

    Thanks guys. I'll be getting it sometime over the next couple days. Will post pics and comments after I get it to the range, which should be immediately, now that I'm officially without girlfriend...again. More time for shootin for awhile, I guess.
