I have a Model 27 and carried it for years. Great Pistol and very accurate for a small pistol. Carrying it concealed in a FOBUS Holster. I have the extension on the magazines which also adds one additional round and your pinky finger if you have larger hands does not hang over the end of the grip! I also have an XD but like my Glock better!
Of course the important thing is how it fits you anatomically. You might go to a gun range and try both!
