    I have a new carry favorite, 45acp XDs!

    After reading a lot about this little sucker, I was sold but they are impossible to find around my area, heck, Armslist had one for $800! Last night I received a call from one of my coworkers urging me to go to the PX on base because they had 3 in stock! I made it to the store with 5 minutes to spare until close time and headed to the guns section where I found they only had two left, and it only took me 20 minutes to get there! I picked this baby up in a hurry. Now to the range to give it a run!

    These are pretty good pistols. I'm sure you will find it a good buy.

    From the specs, it is about the exact same size as a Glock 26/27 - though a hair thinner. It also lists as being heavier (I'm assuming the weight listed is unloaded). Yet it carries only 6 rounds, vs 11 for the G26 (9mm) and 10 for the G27 (.40).

    I understand the allure of this gun for the .45 crowd (I have a G30 so spare me) but IMHO there are better choices out there. YMMV.

    Great choice. I have mine for a month and it is super gun. It has replaced my pm9 Kahr as my primary carry gun.

    To each its own, I wouldn't pay for a glock even with your money!

    If I have to shoot 7 people, I am in the wrong place and I tend to avoid wrong places. No different than a revolver but I have a few choices of bugs I carry.

    I have one and think its a good choice. I bought mine about the time I decided to start putting emphasis on CCing a full sized gun (sig 229).
    Turn the election's in 2014 to a "2A Revolution". It will serve as a 1994 refresher not to "infringe" on our Second Amendment. We know who they are now.........SEND 'EM HOME.
