I forgot the xds. Should i go 9mm or. 40 for the subcompact or is there a better option. Mostly will be carried by the wife or in or vehicles when we travel.

I would go 9mm just because of the cost difference and not much difference in ballistics.

CC and Car Travel are two different guns in my opinion.

I would get myself the XDs in .45 and get my wife something in 9mm. That XDs is going to be a handful for a woman to shoot. Especially with the small magazine. Pierce extensions or the 7 round extended magazine make that XDs a different pistol.

The width is going to be the issue with CC, that is why everyone likes the single stacks. A car/travel pistol is a completely different set of criteria.

I have the XD .40. Best pistol I've ever owned. Fits my hand perfect, I've never had a single issue with it. Like you say, comes moth more stuff in the box, and the compact has a nice grip extension. I added a nice flashlight to mine for when I'm in the woods if I need it. Take it off when I'm shooting bc it's a Lil heavy. My next pistol will be a XDM 9mm in the Sahara tan. The .40 is in the military green and black. Clean looking gun.
