Cool old thread. Thanks for bumping it, Tom, and congrats on the new pistol.
Thanks Mitch. :hug:
Glad you started the thread years ago, as it was what got me started looking.
It just took me years to finally "pull the trigger" on one. :rofl:
The most important questions are how does it feel in your hand and how do you shoot it? My best friend had a XD40 that he liked, but couldn't get it to shoot worth a hoot. Literally shooting patterns, not groups. Then I shot it and shot nice groups. Yet he had a pair of Sig P226's previously that he had no issues with. Some guns just don't mesh with some people, it seems.
Sadly, I doubt UPS would take too kindly to you carrying on the job.....
Actually, I found my hand fits the rear safety on the XDm very easily and naturally. It seemed to be more "user friendly" for me. Plus, I havent even tried the other two grips yet to tailor it to my hand even better. Im still sort of in shock that I finally grew a set and bought a gun. :hehe:
I knew Roni wasnt going to be happy about it, but I explained to her that I personally feel society in general is slowly going to hell, and I'll be damned if Im not sort of prepared if the shit hits the fan. Its my responsibility to protect her and this CV-19 bullcrap woke my ass up. She then understood.
Oh yeah, UPS wouldnt allow it. I deliver into banks, schools and churches...all of which are no-no's. But then, I wasnt even thinking of applying for a CCW permit when I bought the XDm.
