Hi gang:


I'm a newbie to the Xd world, but not the gun world. been shooting since I was a teenager ( A Looooog time ago) Just got a XD40 full size I think that it's called a service ?

I had to sell off most of my hand guns due to making the house payment, you older guy'd know about those little speed bumps in life.

now that I'm back on my feet I was going to buy back one of my gun's from a friend, but he was murderd in a gas station holdup in Houston & no one knows where my Sig went.

So I desided to find a 40 S&W to replace the Tarus PT 411 first & then find a Sig 9mm.

I tried to find something that fit my large hands & fat fingers, the Glocks felt like I had on a tourture devise due to the finger grooves.

This XD 40 fits me like a golve! I just got it last week & haven't had time to try it out yet, but I've heard good thiang about the XD line of pistols from my Motorcycle racing bud's

So here I am! If you guy need any advise on reloading or bullet casting let me know & I'll be glad to help you out!

Thanks!

Howard
