I just bought a new XD40 Tactical that I am having great fun shooting and am finding it a pleasure to carry.

My only concern is that the finish can be ruined far too easily, but I guess I can always have a re-fin job done sometime since this is probably the last gun I'll ever need to own.

Where @ in Indiana ????
I'm up in the NW part.

finish ?

hey it is a weapon made to be carried

If you want a finish to oooh and ahhh over, get an early Colt Python

I get mine out and drool all over it then wipe it down and put her back

Heh well I do wipe the slide down with a oiled rag every night to make sure I don't experence the rust issues. I have no problem with the finish coming off, just concerned it could lead to rust.

I'm from down in redneck martinsville on the northern most johnson county line.
