So over the weekend I went down to a little store in Owensboro KY - Whittakers Guns to buy a CZ rifle... I picked that up but found a deal I couldn't refust. I purchased a SA XD 9mm Tactical for under $415! Seemed like a good deal to me... I have been looking to replace my Ruger P95 for a while, but hadn't made up my mind.
I have not really been a fan of the wondernine class of guns since I bought my first 1911 a year ago, but the XD seems to be a really well put together gun. The grip to me feels pretty instinctive like my 1911. I also like the 5" length due to a longer sight picture which typically leads to better accuracy. The frame to slide fit is also nice, somewhat comparable to a 1911. No disrespect to Glock, their is a reason they are the 800-pound gorilla, but I just don't find them very comfortable to handle.
Anyway... I have a couple questions for you guys...
First I want to add a light/laser to the picanty rail. What is the best one out there, the Streamlight M-6X? Is it worth the extra money for the power over the older 6? I heard Burris was coming out with one that looks pretty cool. Any info. on this? I would like to use this to hunt ***** and 'Skrats at night in KY (it is legal).
Also, anyone have the magwell and bump pads? I think I might be interested in this if people like them. I like them on my 1911.
Thanks from a new XD owner!
