Yeah, tonight I bought a NIB Glock 19, which is sitting here patiently next to me, waiting to be shot. The sad thing is...I sold my XD9sc for it! D'oh! I can't wait to see what lies ahead for my new Glock...perhaps it will cure cancer, or world hunger? I've heard they do that.   Either way, I'm stoked!! New guns are the best guns.

Congratulations!!
The Glock 19 is the crown jewel of the Glock line-up.
I am sure you will love it for many, many years!

happiest days of a glock owner's life... when he buys his first one and sells his last one.

i have a G19 but i did not sale my XD for mine  the only reason i purchased mine was the price tag 250 for a NIB G19 never been fired. so it took me about 7 mins to mull the decsion over before heading to the ATM LOL
nice shooting gun, possible carry gun? not sure my S&W 642 is NICE but 16 shots is NICE also LOL ive shot mine once its nice and accurate, has alot of bullets. its hard to tell a diff between an XD and a Glock19 with one in both hands, they do sit at a diffrent angle though.. weight is about the same (well with my 45gap they are) im not a huge fan of the glock trigger though i think the XD is nicer.
speaking of which some glock salesman tried to sale me a "3lb trigger reducer" for 33 bones at a gunshow this weekend, he says try that gun pull the trigger so i did, to which i said is that one stock? no he said that has the 3lb trigger reducer in it. I said feels like a bone stock glock trigger to me then he says NOOOOOOO grab that gun and try it, (another glock but this one had the cool factory cutaways on it) i squeezed the trigger and said, damm they feel EXACTLY the same, i cant tell a diffrence, he looked at me blankly and i said im a bigger fan of the XD trigger  LOL his expression was priceless. I did purchase a couple G19 mags from him though because they where cheap

Trader!
You would have never sold your XD if it would have been a XD-45!
