Welcome aboard from another Hoosier. What part of the State are you from,I'm in Portland.
AMDnutt, Thank you for the detailed, thoughtful reply! I really appreciate it because I am moving toward the XD as my platform of choice. I traded in a Rock Island 1911 to get my XD Mod2 .45, and I traded in a Taurus 709 Slim to get my current EDC, a XDs 9 mm.squirrelhunter - I'm in the Fort Wayne area, NE Indiana.
RevV - Was not a good shooter for me. Was combat accurate at best which I believe is due to the 3.3" barrel. That was OK but my hands aree large and the beavertail was not big enough which caused the slide to constantly bite the web of my hand. I usually shoot all of my guns a lot and 200-400 rounds at the range is not uncommon. This caused bleeding and cuts which was no fun. Just a bad fitment so I sent it down the road. I really did not want to as it was the Davidson FDE model and was a nice looking gun but it just didn't work for me. It did feed reliably and without trouble, even 200 grain SWC plated light reloads. It was a good little gun but just not for me.
