New Gun on it's way!!

Postby gwilley1 on Thu Apr 12, 2012 2:42 pm

Well I've had my PTC for a few weeks and was debating on what my first pistol would be. I finally figured out what I was going to buy and ordered it today. I chose to go with a Springfield XD sub compact in 9mm. So hopefully Monday I will be a new gun owner. Just thought I would share since I'm always lurking on here.

Should have went glock instead of a copycat

Thought about a glock 19 or a s&w m&p sc but decided I like the way the xd felt in my hand. So XD won this time!

Welcome to the dark side! Sure, the 1911 guys make fun of us, and even the glock guys make fun of us... let 'em laugh - the XD's a hell of a gun.

I almost went to the XDM but really didn't want to spend the $150.00 for it. I got what I think was a heck of deal for it so I couldn't pass it up.

ummmmm....... NO!



Nice gun... I own two. One that's pretty & one that's beat up. They are both excellent... Almost bought a 3rd the other day. If you end up not liking it (which I know you will) give me a holler.

Not sure where i'm going to break her in(central hillside maybe :twisted: ). My brother in law is a cop so will probably go with him to the range.
