And for you, and frankly for me, you're correct.  For AIWB, a G26 is even better (for me).  Hell, a 43 even easier beyond that (for me).

However, I have a few friends that can AIWB a 17 or 34 just fine, and have expressed interest in this pistol since the grip length doesn't impact them as much as slide length.  Go figure, different people prefer different shapes and sizes when it comes to carry!

What I do find refreshing is the honesty people are showing in these topics.  I'm not sure how that can be seen as shilling, when people who have admitted they thought it wouldn't work for them are handling it, and evaluating for themselves.

Guns fit different people differently.  You've made it clear you don't like it.  Again....and again....

Did me saying "shill" really hurt you that much? I mean honestly was it that big of a deal to you?

These threads start over and over trying to promote the 19X but i'm the bad guy for making counter points.

I don't start these threads so i'm kinda finding it hard to feel guilty for pointing out how useless this 17 frame 19 slide combo is..... again and again.

Think about it, these threads are doing exactly what you are complaining that i'm doing.

So the 19x is a full size grip with a 4" barrel, hmm.  You know come to think of it I used to own a handgun like that called the XD9.

No idea why people are saying this. Other than the front of the hood no longer having the slight angle that they did with the gen 3 and 4, it's the same barrel on the outside. I was able to use one of the early (maybe from 8 years ago?) factory TBs in a gen 5 19 with zero issue.

The 17 and 34 gen 5 barrels are not compatible with previous gens, however. Maybe that's the confusion?

Im a 19 fanboy (have 5 of them, a bunch but not as many as some people have here ).

I really want aa 19X, but more for a collector standpoint, because I think it looks cool and would be a fun range toy. I can't see myself actually using it as a carry gun, if I want a 19 length slide, I'll carry a 19, if I want to use 17 mags, I'll carry my 17.
