ya, i need to check them out at the PX when i get back before i make the plunge on this one...

i think this one would be good for my wife because i hear it has very little recoil...

The problem with the subcompacts is you don't get a full three-finger grip unless you have a pinky extension on the mag, so recoil can be more difficult to manage than you'd expect.

I only have the G26 so it's not as snappy as a .40, but even still it takes a bit of practice to get used to shooting with the short grip. But after time with it it doesn't bother me at all. My GF, though, hates shooting it without the pinky extensions.

looks like one of the mags with the xd gear is an extended mag, is this what your talking about?
