I have had one since about 4 months after they launched it. It is my EDC. I love it. Tucks up nice in a WhiteHat holster. I can easily wear shorts and a t-shirt with no printing. Get the Pearce Grip to give a better grip. When pocket carrying switch to a 5-round mag without the Pearce grip.

The drawback is that it is only 5+1 but I always carry at least 1 spare 7 round mag. If you are concerned about round count get the XDs9 and you gain a couple more rounds. I am fine with the 45ACP.

It does have some kick but it is not as bad as most people would think. The LCP kicks more than the XDs. I would highly recommend it.

I did a side by side when buying my pistol and opted for the Shield instead because it was much slimmer than the Springfield. It's a personal choice.
