I would like to purchase a new trap gun and have narrowed it down to a xs special or an xt trap. I would like to know the difference between these two guns and which one would best suit my needs? I mainly shoot clay targets over a trap house.

  The XT is a true Trap gun with the adjustable comb (on most). The drop and swing is balanced strickly for trap shooting (not sporting clays or skeet). For those reading, yes some people use these for a lot of different shooting, but that's not the design.
  
  The XS (I assume you mean like the 802ES Light Sporting Extended Swing) I am not familiar with but assume it means extended swing. This allows for extension tubes to be installed to get a different barrel length which changes your swing and aim point.
  
  If your not sure you are only going to shoot trap, go for the XS. If trap only, the XT. Practice with whatever one you choose is more important then this choice.
  
  Good luck
