I dont think the XDM would be any better than the standard XD. At bad breathe distances the match barrel wont make a bit differnce. The only thing that makes the XDM stand out is the mag capacity. The XD sub .40 cal is next on my list, right now I carry G26 thats been abused to no end.

xdm is now out with a 3.8 inch barrel.  It was just listed on springfield armory web site.

FIRST FORGIVE THE ALL CAPS AS I SOMEHOW MANAGED TO SWITCH THE DAMN THING ON AND DON'T KNOW HOW TO STOP IT. SECONDLY, I REALLY THINK YOUR DILEMNA IS SELF IMPOSED. DO NOT CHOOSE A BRAND, CHOOSE WHAT FEELS GOOD TO YOU AND IS A CONCEALBLE SIZE. YOU ARE LOOKING FOR THREE THINGS;
1) WILL IT GO BANG EVERY TIME?
2) IS IT SMALL ENOUGH TO CONCEAL IN CLOTHES YOU WEAR EVERY DAY?
3) IS IT ENOUGH GUN FOR THE JOB?
THERE ARE A RANGE OF BRANDS AND CALIBERS OUT THERE. FIND A RANGE THAT RENTS AND PLAY WITH THEM. THEN MAKE YOUR CALL.

For the Patriots of this country, the Constitution is second only to the Bible for most. For those who love this country, but do not share my personal beliefs, it is their Bible. To them nothing comes before the Constitution of these United States of America. For this we are all labeled potential terrorists. ~ Dean Garrison

FQ, look between TAB and SHIFT.
""It may be laid down as a primary position, and the basis of our system, that every Citizen who enjoys the protection of a free Government, owes not only a proportion of his property, but even his personal services to the defence of it, and consequently that the Citizens of America (with a few legal and official exceptions) from 18 to 50 Years of Age should be borne on the Militia Rolls, provided with uniform Arms, and so far accustomed to the use of them, that the Total strength of the Country might be called forth at a Short Notice on any very interesting Emergency." - George Washington.

I don't have those keys as I'm writing on borrowed 13" noteook. I have figured the darn thing out though. No more caps from me. Sorry for the earlier screwup.
