Disorganizing Chinchilla Fighting Rings

I just want to show-off my family of handguns, with the newest addition being the XD45 Dark Earth. I've never shot a .45cal before, was hesitant, nervous and sweating, thinking I would dislocate a digit, but finally shot it, and realized I'm a puzzy. Not bad at all, and quite manageable. Anyway, just showing-off and if you have any questions, please make them rhetorical.

Group Picture (R-L: XD-45 DE; Stoeger Cougar 9mm; XD-9 OD Green)












Range Bag (Eastpak - Midnight Blue)
  • Velour Lined Zipper Upper Pocket for Eye Protection
  • Zipper Pocket Below for Earmuffs and Extra Magazines
  • Middle Zippered-Pocket for 100's of Ammo Rounds + Cleaning Supplies
  • Back Zippered Pocket w/Padded Divider (meant for laptop)
    • Back of Divider Holds XD-45 In Case
    • XD-9 and Stoeger Go In Front Divider Pocket (packed in gun rugs)
  • Rubber Carry Handle
Can you tell I like my bag?

I like the Stoeger quite well. It shoots accurately, but seems slightly more difficult to sight-in for follow-up shots. Seems snappier than my XD-9, but that's just me. I'm still a novice, familiar with only the handguns pictured.

The grip is a Hogue Handall. Be careful when cutting the slit in the back for the grip safety. I cut a thin slice out, but when it's stretched over the grip, it spreads quite a bit. The width of a pencil lead is about all you need.

Glad you like the 45acp. I had not shot the 45acp until a friend invited me out to shoot a XD45 Service and after that I had to have one. Now when I tell people I shoot 45, the ask why I shoot such a hard kicking gun. My guess is most have never shot it, just looked at the size of a loaded round and assumed it would kick hard.

What if there were no rhetorical questions?
