Either the video quality of this one is better than others, or I never really realized just how 'slow' the .45 round is.
This is the 1st of his videos where I could actually SEE the round heading down range and see where his misses were going (usually, I just watch for target hits).
Hickock45 may as well have been firing tracer rounds.
Oh... and the time when the slide didn't lock back??? His 1st reaction was NOT to blame the gun, but to figure he MAY have been riding the slide lock of this little pistol. (Wish more people did that.) 
Nice review.

LoL. You just haven't watched enough of his vids yet. There are many, many where you can see the rounds traveling. Pretty cool.

What I always love about Hickok. He calls it like he sees it with any firearm. Even with his beloved Glocks! He said he is not super impressed with the XDS trigger  What's your thoughts?
I guess I need to get out more. I think it is great. Best factory reset of any I own anyway

He did make a point to show the reset and say he was impressed with it. I couldnt believe how short a reset it was. Looks really sweet. I gotta shoot one!

He's been a long time glock supporter, but he seems to be coming around from the "dark side"

He will never leave Glock. However, he might become the first Jedi infused Sith Lord

I think the XDS trigger is better than say my S&W M&P VTAC out of the box.
