My First Gun - XD 9

Hey all i'm new here and just bought an XD 9 as my first gun. so HELLO ALL and i hope to gain much knowledge here about my gun.

Since i'm a beginning shooter i've enrolled in a few classes;

Safety class - 9 hrs
Defense class - 9 hrs

i've also got a CPL on the way and a Comp-tac holster for concealed carry.

on to the niddy griddy... i've been doing alot of reading and have gun shooting at the local range a couple times but for more skill, where should i start on how to shoot my gun properly, and cleaning and what not?

Congrats & Welcome! Looks like you're already off to a good start!
I've shot a friend's XD9 on several trips to the range and find it a wonderfully accurate (and darn good looking, if I may say so) piece.

Great on the new XD9. I have one on the way to my FFL and then I can fill out my paperwork to start the 10 day waiting period.
