Finally....

[TrackHeat]

I got to get out to On Target yesterday and shoot the XD-45 I bought recently. Shot 200 malfunction free rounds through it. This was the first time I had shot with a handgun in several years. The XD was very smooth and I was shockingly able to group some some shots pretty decently as well. Now I'm hooked! I'm probably going to go out to shoot somewhere next weekend too.

I shoot IDPA with a couple of guys that use them. Have never seen one crap out.

200 rounds is nothing for the xd.I put around 500 of the dirtiest rounds known to man through mine the day i bought her right out of the box with no cleaning,and she could have kept going.

hope you keep enjoy it!

A bunch of us Mid-TN guys (& gals) will be at On-Target this coming Saturday, we're meeting at Famous Dave's in Smyrna at 11:30, and heading to the range afterwards (we'll get there around 1:30, probably, like last time).

There will be several other XDs there, and many other fine guns to socialize with.

I dont typically carry XDs mainly because everyone else does. But I have yet to hear an XD owner complain about the gun. And I havent taken any in on trade yet.

Well I thought about going back this Saturday if nothing was going on. I do need to practice some more with it. Shooting is going to be very addictive. I'm already looking for another to have some variety!

Glad you are enjoying your XD .45, I love mine!

congrats...and welcome to the "I need more range ammo" club..and remember, just when you think you have enough, buy doublem because when you get home, clean your gun, and begin to put things away, you begin to feel "empty..."

The empty feeling is what I was afraid of so I kept a box and took it home with me so I would have that plus the Hornady hollowpoints.

Best thing to do, if you don't want to order ammo in bulk, is to simply buy a box of ammo every time you go to Wal-Mart... you'd be surprised how fast it accumulates.

I used to do that (sometimes still do, if there's a good price, or they have some .357sig in stock), and I find myself in Wal-Mart probably 10 times between range sessions... That's a healthy 500rd or so accumulated between range sessions, and it's very affordable since it's rarely more than $20 per trip.

I just ask for Wal-Mart gift cards for every Holiday there is..they add up

I had thought about doing that same thing. I have yet to price some .45 ACP from Wally World yet, I'll have to check that out tomorrow.

XD'S are hard to beat, have fun with it.
