Went to the Indy 1500 last Saturday with the intention of holding as many compacts as I could find. On my short list were the XD(M) 3.8 .40, and the M&P Shield, with a heavy biased towards the XD(M). I was disappointed as to how it felt in my hand, very "chunky" and too full for my comfort...
Hmmm. I was eager and hyped about going but after reading this, I dont know. Im new to this and I thought this would be my best/easiest opportunity of actually touching many different pistol brands to get an idea as to what feels good in my hands. Ive visited a couple of local shops via the net...
ok cool, thanks fellas
this is probably a dumb question, but they track firearm purchases, right? meaning my name will be attached to the gun's serial number?

I plan on going(first timer) just to try and get my hands on as many .40s as possible. Hopefully, I will find one that "fits" me. Whats needed to make a purchse? permit, license and cash? anything else?
very nicely put, thank you for keeping it simple for dummies! Im so friggin overwhelmed right now that i cant even figure out which safe I need! i have 8 tabs open just looking at safes. i want a fire/waterproof one so i can store some other things...easy, i thought...until i read that they can...

-the 155 grn...have you tried others? why have you settled on this? is this for range ammo or protection ammo or both? thank you!
-i assume a gunsmith would have to install the sites?
Excellent! Thanks for the replies. Glad to hear this. Hoping to get one in my hand so I can see what it feels like, soon. Having a hard time finding one, even online.
could you guys list:
-the range ammo and carry ammo that you use?
-carry holsters? looking for the "hip" kind. (lol) I know...
Im considering this as my first purchase but I have 2 concerns.
1) this whole recall thing worries me. I realize it wasnt this particular model but Ive been reading some horror stories about having the repairs completed. bad customer service or what?
2) the grip safety. has anyone that ever...
