Proud new owner of XD 45ACP
Hello all, I'm a proud new owner of an XD45 (which I pick up on Saturday, 'cos I live in CA). Anyway, since I'm new to a .45, can I also use .45auto ammo?
45 acp always seems to be sold out, but I see plenty of .45 auto available.

Welcome from Louisiana!
It's unusual, but out there, 45 GAP. That won't do.

Just don't use 45 GAP or 45 Colt or 45 Long Colt.
Which model did you get?

So now that you have your new 45, come out to ChinoHills @ Prado & shoot some IDPA w/ us. Any 45acp, 45auto ammo is fine as noted.
