    Howdy, from Texas

    Greetings, folks.
    I found this forum recently and decided I ought to sign up.

    I've had my TX CHL for a few years now and I carry daily. My carry rig is an XD 9mm SC, loaded with Ranger 147gr, in a Don Hume Open Top. I've put well over 11,000 rounds through my subby without a single malfunction.

    About a year and a half ago, I started a Houston area XD owners group that has progressed into a successful Texas-wide, practical shooting group....specific to the XD line of pistols. To my knowledge, we are the only organized, XD-specific shooting group in existance. We currently have over 80 members, and we are steadily growing. If interested, please check us out at Texas XD Practical Shooters Association.

    I'm enjoying the Combat Carry forum. Perhaps I can learn a few things and contribute from time to time as well.
