New Guy with some XDM questions

Hi guys I have a XDM40 I traded my Glock22 in on 2 years ago and I lov
how this gun shoots. I've always said you cant go wrong with a glock but
to me a the XDM is a higher class.

I wanting another XDM so I cant decide but I kinda want to build a race gun to shoot for fun and add to my cool gun collection.
I'm not planing on shooting any competition but I might for fun.
So I cant make up my mind do I want a 5.25 or a 4.5
and do I want a 9mm or .45
Things I want are
Threaded Barrel (I have Suppressors)
Trigger Job
And a red dot sight

go 5.25 in a 9mm. its alot cheaper to shoot and recoil will be alot less.

I would go this route... I'm not a big fan of the giant hole in the 5.25 slide

Just got my XDm back from Canyon Creek Customs (pics)

Canyon Creek is one of the forum sponsors here, they did the work on that XDm... I think he mentions in the thread that the slide cuts cost 75 bucks, well worth it for how BA it looks

Welcome to the forum CMF !!!

The XD/XDm is one heck of a gun ... And I'm in the same boat, right now.

Contemplating the best bang for the buck between a XD9 Tactical, the XDm 5.25, and a Glock 34 for the same reasons you have stated ... Decisions, decisions.

yup this is about what I'm looking for


instead of spending the money on a 5.25 I could use that towards the mods and since I want a red dot like a Burris FastFire on the back I really dont need the adjustable sights the 5.25 comes with.

Like this, perhaps ?

I don't care for the grip tape, but the red dot's do work well.
