Nice. Looks like the XD-45 compact service model I just bought.

On second glance, it's the service. Got one of those, still like to try the Compact Tactical

Looks like a compact service to me.

I need one of those lights.

I have that X2L on my XD-9 Subcompact...

They are a little pricey...but MAN are they worth it.

Great little light.

Schwingggg!!!

I admit to liking gun porn like this...

It's a sharp looking pistol.

Well it made me run out & get a copy of a magazine that I have never read before. The write up was favorable but sure felt more like advertisers fluff than a real test/write up on the gun itself.

It seem like the XD was just a back drop to write up the X2L & the Uncle Mikes LULA loader. Which appears to slice, dice, cut, chop & every thing else you need from a loader, minus the ability to handle 22 rimfire.

Of course to be fair, the XD write up is all I read. So its still a little earlier to decide if the magazine can offset the cover price with some useful information.

I certainly thought it was a much better article than the one G&A did where they said the gun shot 2 - 3" low at 25 yards. I still don't know what they were doing wrong. Shooting mine offhand at 25 yards it is dead on (unless I screw up my trigger press).
