Looking at my first CCW handgun and I'm torn between the Glock compact and subcompact models (intentionally avoided naming the model number or caliber). Will be used for EDC (when destination is permissible!), jogging/biking, home defence (first line), as well as intra-state road trips. At home it will be a night stand gun, for carry I have yet to experience with my final configuration but I am thinking a strong side IWB set up. I am a bigger guy, around 240lbs and I tend to wear untucked t-shirts or undershirts with various overshirts. I'm not overly concerned with printing as I suspect this will be minimized by my build and a reasonable consideration towards attire. What I do not want is to be "burdened" by the printing while active or sitting in vehicle. Either model will have adequate capacity and feels good in the hand though I do enjoy the more positive grip of the larger compact frame...
And yes, I know you can run the larger mag in the sub to make up for it at home, but I will be getting three mags with the purchase (standard size, based on model) so I do not have any need for more.
