HK P30SK in a JMCK Wing Claw 2.5 is a good option, especially with the 13 round mags, though obviously a double stack pistol. My problem is that I buy a gun and sometimes a holster and then just keep carrying my Glock 19 (or sometimes a 26 or 43). I'd like to get a P-07 someday. I should probably buy some standard cap mags while I can. I wish that Beretta would make a thinned down version of the M92 Type M in G configuration. Problem solved.
There is the CZ 2075 RAMI.
Ernest Langdon has worked over the Springfield XD-E.
I shot a few rounds through a one several months back. It didn't do anything for me, but I'm also satisfied with my J-frame/P-07/P-09 carry rotation.
Beretta also makes the PX4sc that's G26 sized. It seems well liked by the PX4 groupies. All seven of them.

Agreed 100%!
Thinner da/sa options would be great. Right now there is no competition for springfield xde which isn't great. Its ok and nice that there is the langdon version.
I'd love to see for example sig release new version of p239 that takes p365 magazines. While at it, a p938 version that also takes p365 magazines would be cool. A new subcompact SP2022 polymer series that also took p365 magazines for lighter option.
Then maybe beretta could make a 92g subcompact that's thinner and barrel is shorter then the current compact. Have it use a p365 type magazine. Perhaps also release a striker fired model that's direct competition for p365 at same time using same magazine.
Perhaps Arex might release a rex zero 1 compact or subcompact that's thinner.
Those aren't exactly thin right? If they released new a single stack version or thinned down version with double or stack and half mag would be cool. A thinned down p01 or p07 might be nice too.
These days having thinner da/sa options for those that prefer to carry carry a thinner pistol or to have for times that would prefer a thinner option.
OP: Yes you definitely should try JM Custom Kydex as @Clusterfrack advised. Email Tony (the owner of JM) and tell him what you’re wanting to hide and where you’re wanting to hide it. You should probably mention if you’re shorter or taller longer torso, all that stuff. He’s always had excellent answers for me when I needed help.
All the halfway viable answers I know of for subcompact DA/SAs are the PX4 subcompact, the P30SK, the Walther P99C, and the Springfield XD-e. I wouldn’t have and XD-e unless it was purchased from @Langdon_Tactical.
Why aren’t there more? Market demand. Everyone pretty much wants striker fired pistols and the demand doesn’t really justify the investment expense for most makers. Smith and Wesson used to make the 3913 and 3953 for example, but market forces ended it.
