Im just drooling over the XD's. A little over 3 weeks until I can order one!

You won't be disappointed. They are reliable as hell and Springfield has phenomenal customer service.

Going out tomorrow with some friends. Should have a .270, an AR-15 (5.56 NATO), 1911 .45, XD 9mm, .44 Mag Raging Bull, AK-47, and a MP5. Should be a good day.

Oh dear God. Look what Springfield just announced they are releasing in both black and bi-tone. A new XDm Competition 5.25" with adjustable fiber optic sights. I wish I had an option, but I think I MUST get this!

Aw only in 9mm..Sexy though...I kind of want a gun with a hammer so I might go with a 1911. But I want a .40 and it looks like its only offered in the EMP...Not sure if I want that short of a barrel...anyone else have a rec? Whats the advantage/disadvantage of a shorter barrel besides carrying?

Accuracy. To be honest, unless you're shooting at pretty far distances you won't notice unless it's a a 3" subcompact. Honestly, they are just easier to aim when they are longer as well. I wouldn't get a 1911 for a first gun but that's just me. They tend to be a less reliable gun and generally shoot expensive, slow, inaccurate .45 ACP ammo. Call me crazy but I'd take 9mm or a .40 for personal protection ANY day over the .45 ACP...especially in a 1911.

EDIT: I did this screenshot of less than one second after the watermelon was hit.

What about a Tar 21? Or are you just a fan of Belgium made firearms that look like they are from Halo?
