Hello

Hey everybody, just got into the gun thing. Always wanted to but never really did anything about it. A buddy took me shooting a couple of weeks ago and now I'm hooked. I'm looking for my first gun and have decided that a Springfield will be the ticket. Now I just have to decide between a xd9 or xdm. Looking forward to all the cool tips and peeps here.

I vote for the XDM. The extra cash will be worth the investment. By the way welcome to the world of shooting.

Welcome from Ohio. Depends on how much you want to spend on ammo and how addicted you are.
