Greetings from Baton Rouge!

Just signed up, been lurking for a while. Enjoying my 2 XD 45 Compacts and looking to add a third to the family, probably with the 5" Tactical upper this time.

FYI, I recently took a 2 day Defensive Handgun course with one of my XD 45 Compacts. 980 rounds in 2 days, the only unscripted stoppage (we purposely setup quite a few for practice in clearing malfunctions) was caused by me. I failed to seat a mag firmly on a Tactical Reload, and sure enough the gun fired and the mag dropped a half inch. Tap, Rack, and Bang and back in the fight. Other than that one Operator Error the gun was completely flawless for 980 rounds.
