I have one.... decided on it over a G36 and am happy I did... if we can coordinate some range time your welcome to see how it shoots and if its to your liking...
45ACP huh . . . 3-4-OR 5" ??
My thinking is that anybody (in the know) going to 45ACP . . It's gotta be a Colt. --- SAWMAN
I agree. I have the full size one, great gun but not for ccHave you shot the XD models? I am not a fan of their triggers or that goofy grip safety! It is not like the grip safety on the 1911's. If you like the 1911 platform for about the same $$ as an XDs you could get a Rock Island 1911 in the Commander size in .45 acp and call it a day!
My first take on reading the title was that upgrading meant adding an accessory to you gun. Like better trigger or sights. Caliber is important but a .22 or even .25 in the eye socket beats a .45 that grazes your opponent. Ideally you want both, a big hole and in a vital spot. Also the more shots within limits, the better.
PS: It was warm today and I saw my first snake, but it was harmless one. Still stuck a .38 in holster in my pocket loaded with shot and put on leggings because I was working in my creek.
The trouble I have with with carry guns in general is if it’s to big and heavy or to difficult to conceal then I won’t carry it. I can choose to carry a smaller gun or go unarmed. I tend to avoid places of nuisance and mind my own business,But will freely admit that I fell safer with a carry gun than I do with out one. My hats off to you guys that have the determination and the mind set to carry a full size pistol and related equipment everyday no matter what.
Good to have both available. I too have a “lazy” carry for the times I don’t feel like putting on real pants or a belt. Kinda like some people have a “summer” carry different from their “winter” carry. So while I normally may carry a full size pistol w/ light AIWB, I also have non light bearing holsters, OWB holsters, in addition to having a G43 and AIWB holster, and even pocket and ankle holsters.
I think it’s smart to at least stay in the same family of weapons for familiarity sake.
