Shoot it and you will soon buy more of his brothers.

Put some pics up of your new toy.

Welcome to the forum from UT!

Being your first firearm, I would suggest you put at least 500 to 1000 round down range before you begin to do any mods. This will help you develop the proper shooting grip/stance and help you to know what exactly you will want to mod. I have an XD45 Service that is my carry weapon and I have not done anything to it. I might change the sights to night sights some day, but that is not a priority right now.

Happy shooting and good luck.

Welcome from WV. I would agree dont change anything until you are fully familiar with it. You never know what you will or wont like, especially during the break in.
