Yes, this country is very significantly divided geographically/demographically. New Jersey and California are amongst the more extreme examples of wealth, healthy industry or natural beauty on one "side of town" with filth, corruption, poverty and the worst imaginable pollution "on the other side of the tracks".
I kind of figured most people here would be living on the right side of the tracks------so to speak. Internet access and a job are dead give aways.
With the stainless rail you can pick one up for just over 400 ducats. Very similar hand guns but some minor differences, well kinda major in one aspect is that mine has a double stack clip. So ten rounds in the short clip, 17 rounds in the longer one with the pinky finger rest. So chambered it's 11 rds and 18rds. Double stacks rule LOL
Lots of single stack guns out there now. Mine is also 1 inch wide, mostly because it is a double stack. If the XDS was a double stack it would prolly be another 1/4 inch wider.
I dont like the grip saftey on the XDS-45. I prefer the flip up saftey which is easily accessable with the thumb and ambidexterious as well.
Same glock like trigger. Mine has a red flag up top denoting it is loaded.
Oh, W6, check out this video, at the end it shows you why it had a recall. So check your weapon and see if it needs to be sent in.

Both fine American made weapons.

One more thing to think about is cost of ammo, avaliability and just dont buy a hammer fired semi-auto. W6's and mine are pin fire and are like twice as quick as a trigger. Just the throw on some hammer fired pistols are way to long and will throw off your accuracy.
So just go buy a new one. You can't tell how many rounds have been fired through a gun.
Check out the Ruger LC9 if you want a super concealable weapon. It is one of those hammer-fired locked-breech single-stack handguns. I was going to buy one until I saw the SRC9.

Yeah I definitely made sure the gun was post recall before I bought it. I didn't want to have to go through all that mess.
As far as single stack goes, it's going to take some getting used to. My glock 19 is 14+1 I think so going to 5+1 is a huge difference. I'm liking the weight reduction though. It's not pulling my pants down like the 19 does.

Ernesto, Here is an invite to another family forum favorite. Come on in and show off the beautiful handgun! Place my name on the referal, and I'll see you over there. Lots of good info on the SRC9.

Know anything about a Jimenez 380? Are they junk?
They are American made.
I have 3 or 4 of the Raven's, which is an exact match for the Jimenez firearms, never fired, and still in their sales boxes. California prohibits the sales of them and they are only accurate when you place the end of the barrel on the intended target.

Well, I wanted a rocket launcher, but no one will sell me one. 
Oh, one more important safety feature of my SR9c is that it will not fire if a round is chambered and the clip is out. Important to me cus I almost shot myself with a SW 9mm when I was a clumsy teenager cleaning my weapon. Damn near gave me a heart attack too. Not to mention the bullet hole in my dads ceiling. lol
to this day I swear I checked if there was a round in there.

^^ This is the primary reason that the Generation 4 Glocks are prohibited in California.

I've found that the gun shows are no bargain for purchasing any weapons, but does seem to have better prices for ammunition.
