Pre XD owner, longtime shooter

I have already posted but wanted to write a few lines to introduce myself:

I fell in love the the XD line when introudced, but longed for a 45ACP version, and springfield answered. I have been contemplating which model XD45 to get and am pretty sure I prefer the compact, but there seems to be more reasons to go with the tactical, praticality mostly.

I have been shooting 45ACP in my Gold Cup for years, and have had plenty of mods done to it. I am looking for a no nonsense 45 to share ammo with my Colt and may even want to get into IDPA competition someday.

I thank the fine folks here that have already answered some of my questions regarding the XD platform and equipment and look forward to (hopefully) contributing something useful.

Welcome from Colorado. Some find the XD45 Tactical a little nose heavy. See if you can handle one before you buy it. The compact is a good choice.

Finally decided, that didn't take long

Won a GB auction for an XD45 Compact this morning! Now the wait begins...
