ohiomike Posted October 18, 2011 Report Share Posted October 18, 2011 I think your 23 would be smaller.According to a gun review I read, it sounds like the Springfield is smaller than the g-23. Capacity with the sub magazine on the Spr is 9, 13 in my g-23. Barrel length on the Spr is 3", the g-23 is longer.Best way to tell of course is a side by side comparison but I'm thinking the Springfield is smaller. It is considered a 'sub' compact, the g-23 a 'compact'. Glock's g-27 is their version of a sub compact.just sayin..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
conn-e-rot Posted October 18, 2011 Report Share Posted October 18, 2011 If it is the sub compact it is almost the same size as the g27 very little difference in size. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fizzer Posted October 18, 2011 Report Share Posted October 18, 2011 it isnt a SC+1, maybe people are caught up on a naming issue? you can call the gun "sub-compact" all you want when referring to its size class, but it is not the gun that is called the 3" sub-compact xd by springfield. Based on the pictures it looks like the 4" service model. Both great guns, just trying to clear up which model it is because some people might not be interested in one version vs. the other. glws!
