I carry a Springfield XDS in .45 acp loaded with 230 grain Federal Tactical HST. I use a Fobus IWB holster. I also usually carry at least one spare magazine. I chose this weapon because of it’s reliability and because it packs the punch of 45 and is easily concealable. The HSTs punch a whole the size of a quarter.
