New here.........

I just purchased my very first pistol 2 weeks ago. It's an SA XD .45 ACP in the compact 4" Service Model. I guess that's why I decided to join this site. I would be interested in finding out what others think about there guns. Also, I would be looking to see if anyone has a favorite load or reload for the gun I have. I do need to improve on my shooting!! I have never really shot pistols that much in the past. I have put about 400 rounds through my gun and tend to shoot a little low and to the right, I am a left hander.

Well I hope that I can learn alot here. I welcome all help and advice given, and would appreciate it!

Welcome to the forum! I have the XD-45 Service and I love it as I'm sure you'll love your compact. As for shooting accuracy I'd say just work on grip, sight picture, and trigger control. There's lots of good info on here, so have fun and happy shootin'!
