I do it all the time with a t-shirt (IWB) and cargo shorts. Good luck in your decision.
I know the OAL of the G23 is 6.85" with a barrel length of 4.02" but don't know what the OAL of the XD-M is? The XD-M has a 4.5" barrel so my guess is that it would have an greater OAL length than the G23. I would like to see the numbers of the .40 cal coming out of a 4.5" barrel

My guess is it would be well suited for a range gun given the weight of the piece it would be a hoot to shoot. I could also see it sleeping in my night stand keeping the household safe. I could also see it as a OC Piece cause size would not matter when one could OC

However, trying to conceal this large piece might be an issue for some folks... Just my nickel(inflation)...
