Springfield XD Compact 45 ACP opinions

[blahX3]

Thinking about getting one for ccw. Does anyone here have one and what are your thoughts? Or other .45's at about $500 to consider.

Thanks for your time.

I own the regular XD45 and really like it. It is accurate and handles well. The only problem I have had with mine is I ordered some American Eagle off the internet and I got numerous FTF's. It was the ammo as everything else I have put through it has worked perfect.

Another nice gun in the price range you are looking at is the Bersa UC45. I have the UC9 and really enjoy firing it. I am thinking about adding a UC45 to my lineup. The Bersa products are great products for the price and they also come with a lifetime warranty.

I have one and LOVE it. very accurate and very consistant. it will be my ccw in a crossbreed supertuck.

I'm no expert but I would also look at the G30.

I like the XD platform so much, that I own the XD40 subcompact, and the XD45 Service 4" model. I carry the XD40 about 75% of the time, and the XD45 all the rest. The majority of the time, the XD45 does night-stand duty. As long as I've had it, and in all of the rounds fired (I'm the second owner)...I've had zero issues.

It's a hoot to shoot (but expensive)!

I don't think you can go wrong with one. Mine has proven to be efficient and reliable enough that I trust my life to it. Can't give a better vote of confidence than that.

I mix it up between an OWB kydex paddle, a Don Hume IWB single-clip, and a Comp-Tac Minotaur.

M&P 45c, or really get the standard all others are compared to, a 1911 full size, Para GI Expert is in that price range, just as easy to conceal as those little fat tupperwares.

I have shot the XD9 a little, really liked it. XD has a good reputation, I don't think you could go wrong with it for a carry piece.

XD45C here and love it. 100% reliable and concealable with the right holster and attire.

yep... that 1911 is about the same size alright. (and i love mine, don't get me wrong) but with a lot less in the stack. just sayin...

Thank you all for your input.

Now, where's the best price on one?

Don't have the 45 yet, but I do have an xd9sc and a 4" 40. The xd9sc is really accurate and easy to shoot and handle, the full size 40 is almost as good in both respects. Of the two, I prefer the sc9. For what it's worth, I'd say the compact 45 should be an excellent choice. I'm in the looking stages of getting one myself.

Check G&L in Greenbriar, they have a good selection of xd right now.
