How do youblike your XD subcompact?

Why not a XDM 3.8? Thats what i now carry every day. I had a XD40 Sub Compact and it was a great gun. I like the XDM40 a little more though.

 

I have an XD40SC.
I like it fine.
AFAIK, there is no direct competitor on the XDm lineup.

 

?????

Do you mean besides Glock, Smith & Wesson, Ruger, Beretta, Walther, Kimber, Taurus, and etc?

 

NO.
What I meant is, that there isn't a subcompact XDm (last I looked). I took this discussion to be about the SA XD & XDm lineup.

Wait....Kimber? When did they go plastic?

 

The 3.8 XDM is very close to the same size as a XD Sub Compact.

 

Kimber 1911 Polymer Custom

 

Kind of breaking out the oddities aren't you? Besides its mostly a BUL anyway.
Certainly not the competitor that most think of for the XD/XDms

Perhaps it is (was) an oddity but, it IS a Kimber and it is polymer, thus a competitor.

Layne Simpson did a review of the polymer Kimber and said it would become his primary carry weapon. Of course, he's a gunwriter and is paid to print nice things. Others have stated that they have had a lot of trouble with reliability. I tend to believe those "other's" reports more.
