XD45ACP

I have had my XD45ACP for almost 2 weeks now and I have decided to sell it. Need to raise funds for another large project. I should have waited a little longer but live and learn. I never did shoot it. No time.

These pistols are going to be HUGE!! in 2006.

I wish I could keep mine but it is not in the cards right now.

My only hope is that my Bonus comes this week or I win a nice little scratcher in the lotto. We will see.

I am taking it to the Denver Tanner show this weeked. If I leave with it then well damn it I might just keep it.

It sounds like the XD-45 is fine for you but not your wallet.

I think these pistols are going to be HUGE! in 2006. I bet I will end up with one again sooner or later. Sigh. I just wish I was not gun rich and cash poor.
Putting what you are considering into perspective, most of us who have already purchased the XD .45ACP were probally "stretching" beyond our means in order to do so. I certainly did not "NEED" another handgun but I wanted it so I sacrificed by trading in a SIG P228 to get one. If you sell it, you will probally regret it even as now you obviously are experiencing "BUYER'S REMORSE". Just take it out and shoot it, enjoy it, and tell us how you liked it. Sell one of your other guns and keep your rare early design XD .45ACP.

This is EXACTLY the case with me. The XD-45ACP was NOT in my budget and I had to set aside a couple of things I had planned on doing.

My XD-40SC is at SA right now having some repair work and a new finish done. I am selling it as soon as it comes back to recover the majority, but not all of what I spent on my XD-45...basically it will come to a $105 difference which I can handle.

If you can, hang on to the gun. I really enjoy mine so far and imagine you will feel the same way.

Good luck either way.

Kids in a candy store..

Yes this happens to all of us. However I love mine and it will eventually become my defense weapon. Did I need it? Well I did not have a all black, alloy, with Picatanny rail, high capacity, .45 ACP in one package!!

Same here, my XD 45ACP is my new "diet plan." I also think you should keep it because if you do end up selling it, I bet you will be kicking yourself later.

Well I sold it today.

I will be back.

XD45ACP sub compact two tone anyone?

or

XD45ACP Tactical?

Who knows maybe I won't like the FN FS2000 I plan on getting.

Thanks to all.
