Looking at both the 9 and 45. Anyone have any input?

I have the 45. The only thing I don't like is the fiber optic sights. I love the feel of this pistol.

I bought one of the first 45's to hit Birmingham stores when they first came out.. Ive put about 1500 rds thru mine with out any problems. Nice and flat and easy to conceal. recoil is not bad. Less recoil than my PF9.

Have y'all tried the Alien Gear holsters? I think I'm about to order one for my XDS 45.

I think the xds is too heavy for what it is. The xdm and xd aren't much bigger and have twice the ammo. My G26 loaded weighs the same as the xds loaded with several more rounds. I actually prefer the kahr 9 at 15 oz.. I love Springfield products, I just wish they could have shaved a little weight off the xds. Lots of people do have them and like them though.

I like mine, it's been flawless before and after the recall.

IF you are comparing the XDs in 9mm to 9mm - I probably wouldn't disagree with you. But for a 45 ACP, think I would take a small bit of issue with your assessment. Have carried a few diff 45s, and so far like this one the best for carry!
