Only found one store around here with a new XD45, and it cost me $640 for a black one.

Wish I knew about buying online.

never held one but is the mag release hard to push with it shrouded like that? i mean hit it with your right thumb without turning the gun?

There is enough room to push it without having to rotate the gun, but the release is stiff though.  The shroud doesn't seem to really be an issue. Kind of nice though.  One less thing to snag.

  Never really liked the feel of that wide load of a "compact". Anyhow, it's good for killing people, so I like.

how cute.  I am not a fan of the 40cal, go with 45 if you want more punch, or 9mm if you wanna hold more ammo, 40's have a really snappy recoil that makes it hard to do quick follow up shots

ehh, its give and take. 40 has great knockdown power, while the 9mm and 45 tend to completely penetrate and just punch holes(unless of course its a hollow). i love the way my 40 shoots vs my 9mm or 45

how often are you going to really need a pistol though? I mean, even in self defense, you're practically guilty until proven innocent in the court of law when a gun is involved. If it's just for shooting pleasure i'd much rather practice marksmanship with a rifle. just my .02

I would much rather have my family and myself alive to stand trial to defend my actions vs being dead with nothing to explain.

BDVT  Which range you going to?

Shot a XD 45 yesterday (To the tune of around 100 rounds through it) at the range and REALLY liked it.... Alot more than the 40 I shot not too longago... IDK I cant see there being that big of difference. I like the 45 ALOT though.

So sleeping with Marc's wife is safer than sleeping with Mali's or Ryan's.  Gotcha.

its more complicated then anything balistics gel will show

size of the wound.. the trauma the bullet will cause.. what happends after you hit bone... etc etc

Depends, on which Canadian. I was a gun nut when I was younger and a deadly shot, when we went shooting the other day it was the first time I had shot a handgun in years.
