So I "Pulled The Trigger"
Yes pun intended lol.
I went to the LGS today after work and traded my Sig P239 (that I didnt really like to shoot anyway) for a XD-S. I havent shot it yet so i dont have a range report but it is beautiful lol.
Here are some Photos from when I returned home. I havent cleaned her yet so its still oily from the factory.

Here is one with the Extended 7 round magazine, give you a full grip for either a backup magazine or a range mag.

I love the extended mag. I think the idea of carrying it as a backup magazine is great. If your 5 wont do the extra mag and grip are all pluses.

Thanks, Im going to most likely order a Crossbreed Mini Tuck or supertuck deluxe for an IWB holster. Also some Pearce pinky extensions for the flush magazines

Congratulations! What a beauty! You will be very pleased I think once you get to let some lead fly through her!

I fondled one at the LGS last weekend, called my brother and he bought it that day. I got to shoot it today and it was a firecracker. I'm used to a 9mm shield and I have very little time with .45, let alone one in such a small package pistol. It's snappy to shoot, but I'm sure I'd get used to it with more range time and I think you'll be pleased with it. Congrats on a great firearm!

Very nice gun. Of course, I'm biased since I own one too! Great shooter. 100% reliable. I notice that yours came with an extended mag. Mine just came with a second flush mag. Are they shipping with the extended mag now?

Nice, but man do I love my P239...

Switchblade906 you made a good decision. These are darn fine pistols which feel and shoot great. I am not much into the plastic stuff that come with them but the pistol however is great. I am sure you will enjoy it!

Yeah I wish it would have come with another mag or 2 instead of the holster and mag carrier. When I saw the guy come out of the back stock room with this huge case I was like "damn, this little gun comes with that huge ass case" lol. The salesman just laughed and said he gets that a lot.
