Carrying feels like a brick on my belt :(

[Binky]

I wear a shoulder rig. Easier to conceal under a jacket or my dress shirt. Otherwise a Jframe in a pocket works.

I'll definitely lose a quickdraw competition (as well as a few shirt buttons if I have to rip open my shirt...sexy). But when it comes down to it, the chances of me being in a situation that I have to pull are pretty low.

The chance I'll need to fire after drawing are even lower.

The chances I'll need to draw and fire within a few seconds are so low I'm not even concerned about it.

Springfield discovered stippling and thought they had reinvented the wheel

I dont understand why they are molding 'grip zone' into it. its a dual layered gimmick that really turns me off the pistol.

No way- the mod 2 has the "grip zone" dewd

We don't live in a real attentive society!

I wonder if people took the new XD mod2 to be part of the XDS line?

I was just going by what they posted a year or so ago, But as I mentioned not that much is gained by going to the single stack

Yeah man, I know. FWIW, that rumor is never going to die.

[John -- '02 HAWK]

My Springfield rep says otherwise. He said they tried it, and it was just too snappy in 3.3", and they don't want to do one in 4" and not offer it in 3.3".

I'm actually debating getting rid of the .40 and moving to the .45. The size is exactly the same and I can use the same holsters I already have. The main reason is that I'm thinking of adding an XDS .45 for daily carry, still want to have a full size, and would rather not have 2 different calibers.

All I have (at the moment) are several different handguns in .45acp. 2 xd's, 3 1911's. And I've got a 10mm 1911 by RIA. That gun is stupid accurate, but has feeding issues.

I'm a fan of caliber consolidation in handguns. Long ago, I had something like 16 handguns, in several different calibers. 9mm, .45acp, .40s&w, .357mag, .38special. I think that was it. Feeding all those whores got to be too expensive, so I settled in on .45acp.

[NTexas_V-Star]

Have you ever thought about going to a different holster. I went back and tried the HK the other day and it just adds so much bulk. I'm currently using a Raven VG2 and I plan on ordering the Eidelon

Not really. This one works pretty well. I've looked at some, like the Raven line, just nothing has gotten me interested enough to spend the money.

Nice! I miss my XD 45 Service Model. Good capacity vs. weight. Mine also had the external safety. Really want to get a Glock 21 so I can throw in a 10mm conversion barrel into it, don't know if the XD offers that or not. What belt are you using with it?

Some no name leather gun belt I picked up at the Ft. Worth gun show a few years ago.
