What does the rest of your department carry. One that I would look at would be the Springfield XD .45 compact. It has a 4" barrel and comes with a 10 rd flush fitting mag and a 13rd extended grip mag. For duty you can use the 13 rd extended grip mags and carry 2 extra 13 rd. mags, then off duty you can conceal carry with the 10 rd. flush mag. The only thing I don't know about is if they have any duty holsters and mag carriers that fit this gun. When my Department was switching from 9mm to .45 one of the guns we tested and evaluated was the Springfield XD, which we liked but it had just come out so we were concerned with "new gun" bugs. We went with the Sig P220.

Ha. Didn't see this till now but I look forward to gun shopping with you if this is who I think it is. Lol.Hey guys,
I just got hired on as a reserve police officer and I am so excited. I have to purchase my own side-arm. I have very little experience with guns and not the biggest budget. What do you guys recommend. The only rule was no 9mm.
Thanks
