The xds is not the best option available on the market right now for me either. But it's what I have in the safe.

I think a Glock 43 would be a better choice for me. I just haven't gotten around to buying one yet, and I generally like my xds.

Also, I generally advise people to make their ccw choice based on comfort. If it's uncomfortable eventually you'll start leaving it in the glove box or leaving it at home.

So I tell people to buy something that you will carry almost every where you go. It's better to have something on you, even if it isn't the "best", than to have the "best" sitting at home in a drawer.
