Are XDS any good?
The XD-S is surprisingly comfortable for a subcompact, single-stack pistol. The grip is thin, but not overly so and for me at least, the gun feels good—feels substantial—in the hand. I find the grip angle to be excellent.
Which is bigger 43X or shield?
The Glock 43X basically puts a Glock 43 slide with a silver PVD finish (and forward cocking serrations) on a different frame. It’s a Glock, with the tabbed Glock trigger. We’re probably all familiar with it by now. So…it’s 0.1 inches wider than the Shield.
Is M&P Shield a good carry gun?
Mostly I have been pretty tepid on the compact and full-sized M&P handguns but the Shield is an outstanding pistol. I’ve carried it, and I’d carry it again. It is extremely compact, extremely reliable, and extremely accurate. While 7+1 or 8+1 rounds is not quite up to “modern” standards, it’s also nothing to sneeze at.
Is the M&P Shield a good gun?
The Smith Wesson M&P Shield has decent overall ergonomics.

Some people will like it and if you have larger hands, I think you’ll like it a lot.
