An XD9162HCSP06. That an XD .45ACP 5" Tactical w/ flat dark earth frame to you and me. Now the fun part... waiting. I've never much cared for that part but cest la vie, I guess. It's funny - when these first came out I thought they were ugly as sin. Just because of this fact I never gave them much thought. Hey, I was a 1911 guy anyway. Then my friend eventually turned me on to Glocks. Now my G17 is a nice little tool but the designs shortcomings still bother me. Now I looked at the XD again and saw it in a new light, and new colors to make it pretty-like! I finally handled one and surprise-surprise, the hype was right! It had such natural point of aim (one of my problems with the Glock), and 13+1 rnds. of my beloved .45 never felt so comfy in my smallish hands. And now I must wait... Anyone else on the list with me? |
