Default Springfield XDS 9mm

Just picked me up a Springfield XDS 9mm for carry. Anyone have this gun and have any first hand information on it? I haven't shot it yet, I will probably go to the range Friday.

I gave my dad one for Christmas. He loves it! I've got the 45ACP version. They are exactly the same in every way except caliber, of course. Well, the 45 is 5+1 and, the 9 is 7+1 capacity.

We might be talking different guns here, the one I shot had a 18 round mag...... I think, I know it was over 15

Remarkably low recoil, considering the caliber!

You want one? I happen to know a guy that sells em!

For those of you that have the XDS, do any of y'all concealed carry, & if so, what holster do you use or recommend?

I use an Uncle Mike's Number 1 holster and, it does pretty well.

I sell my XDS's (black) for $525 + tax. Bi-tone costs about $40 more.
