My 9mm is full-sized and double-stacked. While it doesn't pack the punch of a .45, I do have 16+1. As it is, a double-stacked 9mm is no wider than a single-stacked .45.

I carried mine shoved in my waistband behind my right hip, when working undercover, and it was very secure that way. Wearing a holster is a dead giveaway that you are a cop.[/qutoe]
And if you're not a cop? The most frequent question I've been asked while OC is, "Are you a cop?" I tell them "no," but as I'm not actively bringing down bad guys, it's not a detriment for those who don't ask to think I may be.
I'll have to put up comparison photos of the G34 and 1911 to see about the width thing. I was already asked for photos just need to make time to shoot (get it?) them. I might be wrong but pretty sure my 23 and 34 are about same width. But one is 9mm and one .40 both double stack. I'm curious now. When I get home I'll check and post tomorrow.
