Although i rather prefer to get the xd "m" version but since this is california and there not approved to be sold here what can you do. Well there is a way to get one over here legally but i don't have any family members or friends that live out of this state to do so.
Anyways what are you thoughts on the xd models? It would be nice if you guys or gals can suggest any other brands and the reasons why and if possible a price. I'm not looking to spend a whole lot of money for a hand gun but, some where between 400 to 600. Thanks.
I plan on getting one probably either this month or next. I just want some opinions on other brands.
Is this going to be used as a carry weapon? I have an Xdm9 and it pretty good IMO, I do need more tigger time on it though. XD I believe are just a little better than glock just cause you get extra goodies like a holster and a two mag holder. Plus springfield armory customer service is great. I don;t know if these are still being imported, but the steyr M-A1 guns are from what I heard pretty good considering the designer of glock also designed it
Maybe you should also consider a compact 1911 style pistol.
