I have both but perfer the 32. more rounds better for me to hold onto and not hard for me to conceal at all. 6' 170pds hides all day in a bianchi black widow. I am an leo and love this weapon. you would be happy with either great weapons.
IMO, the G33 is much less managable than a G32.

Wait.
Now as to the guns...pick the one that feels best in your hands.
Honest.

As far as recoil, the G-27/G-33 hits me in the middle of my palm as opposed to the G-19/23/32 which is just large enough for my hand. The G19/23/32 fits my hand perfectly. I only notice it after shooting 25 rounds or more and then its not bad.
I don't think there is much of difference in concealability unless your going to wear it on your ankle.

I've had both the 33 and 32. I sold the 33. You get four more rds. with the 32, three if you put a +1 on the 33. You get a 1/2" more barrel for more velocity and longer sight radius. They sit at the same height in an IWB holster, so the 32 sits lower and feels more secure. I carry the 32 more than any other Glock I have. It's a great gun, accurate and powerful with alot of range.
I'd get a cheap .40 barrel for it unless you already have a .40. Sometimes you have to look hard and order off the internet to get decent deals on ammo. I just ran out of those bulk boxes of Speer Gold Dot Ammoman had, the recalled stuff or whatever. I bought 5,000 rds. and I'm not sure what I'm going to do now. Georgia-Arms has pretty cheap reloaded FMJ in ammo cans, 125 @ 1300 fps.

I can ony give input on the 32. I chose it over the subcompacts because they are uncomfortable to shoot. and the grip extensions only makes them the same size as the compact models. Until I buy a good holster belt, concealment is kind of tricky for my build and warm climate La has. But under heavier clothes it doesn't make much of a difference. Good luck with your decision.

I own a G32, it fits my hand like a glove. It also disappear under even a light shirt with my C-TAC IWB holster. I would say if you are planning on using the gun for CCW shoot for the 32, can't go wrong.
Los Suenos,check out Precision Cartridge,I'm very happy with their 125gr fmj,shooting it in a mag mixed with Georgia Arms Canned Heat,I was surprised to find the Precision was a little hotter than GA.Prices are good also.They're in Indiana,$196/1000 shipped to me in Oregon.I'm expecting my 2nd case on Monday...:supergrin:
Really nice people to deal with also...
Oh yeah,I carry a G32,it hides well enough-6',235#...
