Glock for the CCW?

I have a smith and wesson 9mm which i like but is not a subcompact frame. I will be taking the CCW course in Ohio and debating which glock i should get.

I would like to get some expert advice on this, as it will greatly influence the handgun which i will purchase.

.357 Glock 33
.38 Glock 28
.40 Glock 27

I am leaning towards the .38 or the .40 not so much the .357 but ide like to hear what you have to say.

I want to stay away from a .45 since i feel that is too big of a caliber for the CCW and since i have a 9mm already i would like to have different caliber.

If you didn't notice it is his back in the picture. How could he pull up while drawing with out sweeping his body or at best his leg before the gun is in front of him?
I mentioned this a long time ago in another thread. I don't approve of the SOB unless the grip is in the "up" position to avoid aiming at your own body.

It was pointed out to me at that time that I must not approve of a shoulder rig either as you have the weapon pointed to your arm at one point. (I don't wear shoulder rigs, but the Dirty Harry style would resolve that issue).

Also, the appendix carry has the same disadvantage, but I like the appendix carry.

So I guess it all boils down to training. Train yourself never to put your finger inside the trigger guard until you are on-aim and you should be OK.

Also, the SOB carry requires the longest of Tee-Shirt tails or it will reveal when sitting. That is not nearly the case with other positions on the body.
