    Pulled the Trigger

    Literally in this case... bought my first handgun this morning, spent the afternoon at the range with it. I'm convinced I made the right decision. Got myself a Springfield XD 9mm, slightly used. Gun shop threw in an extra magazine (have a total of 3), got a range bag, cleaning supplies and ammo all for less than other shops were charging for the gun new.

    Here she is...

    I carry the XD 45C. If you are going to carry concealed, look at this handgun. You lose 3 shots because the grip is shorter, 10 rd mag vs 13 rds in a full size, but it sure makes a world of difference when carrying concealed. The grip being shorter lessens the probability of printing a great deal. Just my .02.

    Very nice.

    Of course, we'll need pics from the range.
