Just wanted to say hello. I recently purchased a XD Compact .45! I love this thing. I currently do Executive Protection work in Telluride, CO and was wanting a .45. I've owned the following and nothing compares to the XD:

glock 21
glock 21SF
glock 36
HK USP 45 fullsize
HK USP 45 compact
Taurus 24\7 .45
numerous 1911's ( I won't go there)

It was a real close call between the XD and the M&P .45. The XD was much smaller and felt better. The major deciding factor was Clint Smith of Thunder Ranch. After seeing him use the XD and not his 1911, I was sold on the XD.

The only thing I would like to add to my XD is low profile night sites, and some grip extensions for my 10-rnd mags. I don't really like the pearce grip ext. Are there any smaller one's on the market?

Thanks guys and I look forward to the Forums.

Welcome to the forum. I carry the XD45 Service so I have not used any grip extensions.
