    She's home!!!!!!

    I bailed her out of jail today. It's actually my wife's, but after handling her some I have to get one myself. If the xd doesn't have a top 3 trigger (polymer guns) I would be really surprised. The trigger is sweeeeet. Heres a couple pictures. I know I know, seen one seen them all. Just figured I would do it for the heck of it. I picked up some guard dog? SD ammo. I have never seen anything like it. It looks like a FMJ round. I guess it has gel in it? And it expands. The only .40 ammo I could find so I bought it. After paying $31 for 20rds, I swear I felt like I got raped.

    The only thing I found I didnt like on the xd is the slickness of the grip. I think I will put some grip tape on it or something for my wife. I never thought I'd say this, but I really do like the extra safety features of this gun. None of them get in the way, and I can tell if there is a round in the chamber, or if it is just engaged. The holster it came with was a nice addition. It is a little tight even when loosened but it works well. I still cant figure out how to use the mag loader Mag pouch is a cool addition as well. Bought the weapon for $590 OTD. This is now my favorite handgun, Move over m&p!!!! The way it points, feels so natural. Every time I draw, the sights are right on. I can't wait to shoot it, but I cant find any ammo!!!!!

    Congrats, very nice.

    I think Hogue and maybe Pachmayer have little rubber grip sleeves you can try on it, in addition to trying grip tape.

    Have fun, be safe.

                      You could try what I did to mine. I wrapped it with black vet wrap. Gives a good grip and a $2 roll will do at least 2 guns. I twist it while I'm wrapping it on the front strap in 2 places a few times to create finger grooves. Works awesome.

                        Grats! Looks good. Got 50 rounds of some Speer Lawman for like 27 bucks today... don't have a lot of cash till payday but this works.

                          Nice! The XD 40 Service model was my very first firearm. Love the way it looks and feels. Only downside is the .40 round being a bit more snappy compared to the 9mm and 45.
