One less person to worry about getting one before myself.

I can't wait till I get my hands on one.

I'm willing to wait. I'll take the .40 in the meantime.

Thanks for the videos. I eagerly await the release of the .45 ACP model.

I haven't shot it for groups or tested accuracy. I've been using it on Personal Defense TV shoots, where we shoot it on paper or steel. No real way to check accuracy that way.

I do really like the replaceable backstraps and the disassembly lever. Haven't really had time to shoot it a lot. The new looks either appeal to folks or they hate 'em. I think the look will grow on shooters.

Nope, just stating that a 10mm wouldn't work on this frame, it would have to be a .45 frame.

I blasted a bunch of rounds downrange after making some trigger upgrades, and if Glock wants to sell .40's they better get off their butts. This thing shot GREAT!

I will be interested in checking the XDm out. Don't have anything in .40 right now.

Please elaborate on what you think makes it so "gimmicky".

It looks like a vast improvement to me, because it addresses several legitimate complaints about the original.

No doubt there will be a 9mm, and and it shouldn't take long.

Why would you want to change the grip? The grip on my 45 is like a perfect fit, I can only see problems arising there. I guess it's just to have something to compare to the s&w m&p.
