Not selling it...but thanks for asking.
As far as concealed carry goes, it is a gem. I picked it over the Kahr because of the additional safety on the backstrap/grip. The Kahr has a long trigger pull and it was awkward for me since I have fired strikers nearly exclusively all my life.
I have rarely heard anyone feel comfortable with a .45 1911 smaller than a commander as far as reliability goes. Although, there will be 5 posters that will extoll the virtues of a 1911 with a 3-3.5" barrel...It is just not for me.
I am using a De Santos tuckable holster. I have an Uncle Mike's that I really don't like too much, but it is slim (non-Tuck). And I had a Galco that the dog ate. The Galco was slim as well, but not tuckable.

Again..are you talking accuracy here?
Haven't even begun to look at holsters but since I have developed love handles in my advanced age of 44, I don't know if a tuckable one will be an option. Leaning (heavily) to non-tuck.
What size barrel does you XDs have? I held one today with a 4" but am thinking concealment so might'v (wrongly) ruled it out.
