    I have two XD40 subcompacts (one for me and one for my wife for CC), an XD 45 5"barrel, and today bought myself a 4" XD9 for my birthday. That ought to tell you what I think of the Springfield XD line! I also own some revolvers and other brands of semi-auto pistols, but I am a BIG fan of the XD Springfield guns!

    Check with Sporting Arms for pricing as well. There's not really a lot of room for big discounts on the XD's, but they'll get you a great price, although they are here in Texas (down the road from me in Lewisville) so you'll still have taxes.

    Seems like they quoted me in the $475 range for a .45. Even other online dealers were in the low to mid $500 range. I could have saved $50 or so at least.

    Late to the party. Just wanted to let you know that i use my XD40 subcompact as my truck gun. It rides with the 12 round clip with space adapter inserted and the 8 round (I think) mag close by.

    When I get out to go into a convenience store (better known as a stop and rob in this area), I swap mags and drop it in my front pocket to be my "go to" instead of the Bersa thats riding in a pancake at the small of my back. I always feel like

    On a buying note-I got this about a year ago. I was going to buy a new one and my gun contact at the pawn shop called and said he had a trade in that had all the goodies for $50 off new price. At that time they were selling for $425 new.

    One thing to watch if you use it as a truck or carry gun. The slide does not have the same finish as a Glock and will rust. I oil it at least once a month, because the the matte black finish, you don't see the rust start, just when it starts to brown.

    The newer model Xd's are supposed to have a different type of finish on the slide to prevent this from happening. Only time will tell if the new finish holds up.
