I’ve got a G19 Gen 4 as my current favorite and have been trying to ignore the 19X telling myself it’s just the same gun with a few tweaks and I could keep my money for more frivolous things....

I'll say that the 19x trigger is leaps and bounds better feeling than the 19G4 that I have. Also, and this may be my imagination, but the grip size (the girth) seems smaller to my hands. Have not bothered to measure it.

I also removed my lanyard holder and replaced it with a Vickers Gen4 plug, which fits perfectly and in FDE almost matches the 19x color.

For me, it will only get better when this gun comes with a manual safety and an optics plate. Yes, I know, a manual safety is a controversial subject, but as an old, long time 1911 user, I like them.

FWIW, not having ever owned a G17, I was concerned about printing in my IWB holsters. Needless concern, at least with the flat bottom mag. Just as concealable as any 19 I've had.
