Just bought my first firearm
3 hours ago I purchased my first firearm; my XD 40 SC. I love it so far, but my father (my wife and I are staying w/ my parents until we have our down payment saved) really hates guns. I think that out of respect for him, I am going to store it at my storage unit.
Anyway, I'm uber-excited to finally have it! |

Congrats on the new XD and welcome to the forum from UT. Go out and shoot as much as you can. As this is your first handgun, you may want to look into taking some basic handgun/firearm/saftey classes. Find friends to go shooting with and enjoy. The biggest problem with firearms is that you rarely can have just one!

As to respecting Dad, I find myself lucky. My father is a gun collector, and while my mother was not happy about guns in the house, she wasn't entirely against it. (She even owns a Daranger). Welcome to the Boards! |
