Springfield makes the best handgun on the market in the $500-700 range IMO. I have the XD .40 and love it. Thinking of selling it at a gun show and bumping up to the XDM. I don't have the compact but my dad does and he loves it. He bought the Walther PPQ 9mm and the Springfield and said he likes the way the Springfield feels and shoots much better.

Just do a little research and listen to folks around here. Go to academy and hold a number of them and see which one feels the best.

I have the Xdm 9mm and its a great firearm for an even better price. I haven't done a ton of research, but I believe it would be hard to find an auto with a match-grade barrel for a comparable price. As far as stopping power, I looked at getting the .40, which is obviously better in that department, but if you can't stop a human with 19+1 then you shouldn't be defending yourself with a firearm.

My buddy has the XD sub-compact and theres really nothing overly "compact" about it. Its a little large for an easy concealed carry IMO.
