Some people do but it's painfully obvious for anyone to know what it is if they're slightly familiar with the shape of a gun and happen to be looking in that area for some reason.
If the people around you aren't looking for a gun they tend to go un noticed even though you think it might stick out. I went a full month with my girlfriend not knowing I had a p938 in my pocket when we first started dating. She knew i had shit in my pockets and that I didn't like her putting her hands in my pockets, but she didn't know it was a gun until she asked about cc weapons of choice and I pulled the p938 out.

Also having my vp9 in my pocket feels incredibly uncomfortable and the grip tends to stick out because I don't wear crazy oversized clothing. I think even a Glock 26 is to big for comfortable all day every day pocket carry even though I would prefer the higher capacity compared to the 7 rounds in my sub compact

That's what I thought, the whole idea of being told that a single-stack isn't enough for pocket carry seemed ludicrous.

Any opinions on Springfield's XDs?

Virtually no reason to buy an XD-S.

I love this argument. Support the Smith and Wesson with their shady ass dealings and copy cat habits, or glock which likes to stay behind the curve until it threatens their market share because you once hear a person say "croatshit" without knowing why, before shitting on design detail that hurts literally nothing on a gun going into a pocket. Nevermind that it comes with a 8round mag and better sights already. But whatever, keep being the typical xd bashed because you missed out in buying a $200 hs2000

I got a XDS 9 specifically for its grip. It is a great little basted for cold/wet days. It is best used with gloves.

So, you're saying your favorite feature of the XDs is the GRIP ZONE?

The XD-S doesn't need the grip safety pressed to rack the slide. That's only the XD, maybe the XDM.

How do you even fit that into your pocket in the first place

I can barely get a single stack 9 to fit in my jeans and no I don't wear skinnies

How misshapen of a hand do you need to have for this to be a legitimate issue of concern? I've never once had the grip safety prevent me from racking my slide.
