10 day wait is over! Woohoo!

Finally! The wife and I picked up our new guns today. Luckily the place we bought the guns at also had a healthy stock of .45 ACP ammo (picked up 4 boxes of Winchester white box 230gr). Also if anyone is interested, they have another identical XD-45 tactical /w nightsights there as well. Old West Guns in City of Industry. Their prices are probably a little high, but the people who run the place are very nice, that and they actually had an XD-45 in stock when we were looking.

Mine is the AO 1911, hers is the XD-45 Tactical /w night sights:

Exquisite choices! Congratulations and welcome you both to gun ownership!

Very nice gun. I am almost afraid to ask what 4 boxes of WWB for the .45 cost at the gun store. With the price of the ammo, I am sure the OP could have gotten the SA TRP Operator .45 if he had not purchased the ammo. LOL.

[SeanCasey]

Ammo was fairly expensive at $23/box. While I was there someone bought 4 boxes of .40 and a couple boxes of .45. He was also saying that he was having trouble finding ammo.

Anyhow, tomorrow after 6:00pm you will probably find my wife and I at the OC Indoor Shooting Range in Brea giving our new guns a proper run through a box (or two) or .45.

the 1911 is a beauty!

but as for the xd i dont really dig the turdish brown color lol but still nice!

It wasn't my wife's first color choice. She wanted the stand bi-tone or all black, but the only thing we could find was what they call "Dark Earth", and we decided to go for it.

Eh, put a black rubber handall sleeve thing on it and you'll be fine.

Nice, can't wait for mine 1911.

[Look Wat I kAn DO !]

nice. I just picked my gun, also. love that 1911

[RudyN]

Those are great! Congratulations on the new guns. I can pck up my SKS this coming Saturday. Already have two 45s and a XD9.

[SeanCasey]

Just got back from the range + cleanup. Absolutely love them. The trigger is a little stiff on the 1911 but the short trigger mitigates that somewhat. I actually shot better with the 1911 and its tiny GI-type sights as opposed to my wife's XD /w night sights. Go figure.

Both guns functioned flawlessly and we had a great time.

Total badassery! Nice pick up man. Hope you enjoy. Cant hate on a 1911 and I own 2 XD's and totally love them! Congrats.
