These clips hold like an alligator. I’m comfortable it won’t come out of my pants.

Which brand/model?
I have no experience with Taurus. I have lots with Glock and Sig. Whatever you choose, make sure you can run a few hundred rounds through it without a malfunction.

The curse of the Ruger LC9 -- tried several different ones - all were jam machines with any hollow point ammo.

I recognize the interstate carry issue but Im sold on the 365 X Macro version, only a little over a half inch difference length and height for a better shooting higher, 5 round higher capacity.

Good call on the Glock. My daily, town carry is a G43 with Taran Tactical +2 mag extensions. Gives me just enough handle to shoot comfortably but still have the flexibility to go with the flush fit 6 round magazines if I need to go ultra-concealed.
Great pic! 43x is a nice shooter for carry.

I enjoy my wife's SIG 365 SAS to the point I *thought she wouldn't want to continue her carry interest and I'd have my sleek Sig.
I know the selection is not based on the Sig 365 SAS version though figured worth sharing the info:
Why I'd go Glock over Sig SAS:
No slide release. You need to rack the slide. They *could have molded a bump out to shield the thumb release.
The sights are really nice though my concern is adapting to/from this unique style of sights and standard sights. Repetition with typical handgun sights is paramount to quick necessity, IMO.
/off topic in the event someone was viewing the 365 and considering the SAS upon view.
Back to OP: Nice choice!

No mention of a Springfield? Only asking because I'm looking for something in this size range and the hellcat had my attention some.
I’ve never seen a ruger lc anything that wasn’t a jam machine regardless of ammo
Basically the same as a G48 size wise. The higher capacity is really of no benefit to me.
No single answer.
No. I previously had an XDS45. It was a nice pistol and I had no issues with it. I wasn’t overly fond of the grip and trigger.
I did a little work from the holster yesterday. Easy peasy to get two rounds in the head in under two seconds at the 5 yard line.
Definitely try the Pro if you look at hellcats. Also find what box/combo it comes with. I dont know why but Springfield will sell the hellcat, but one option is just the gun, another is the gun and 5 mags, the other is gun and 5 mags and a duffel bag etc etc. If you see varying price that is probably why.
Yep. The 48 i shot had the Shield magazines.

My recent purchase. I carry different guns up until now. I plan on this being the new carry. It’s the X Macro.
