Nice gun, but I don't see the point of the 19X. If the standard 19 frame was way shorter than the 17 to the point it was uncomfortable for people with large hands I might understand it. I have a gen 4 19 an the length of the grip is just fine for my large hands. I actually find the 19 more comfortable than the 17. If they had made a 17X, a 17 slide with 19 frame they would sell an *** ton of them. I understand why they are selling them, to make up for loosing to Sig on the MHS, but this was a bad move by them IMO. Especially considering it isn't 100% compatible with all Glock mags.
