I have a XDM 3" and a XD45 4.5" both work well with reloads, but, I wouldn't buy them again.

Like Red Dog Master says, life is too short for cheep guns

Very good price indeed...if you want an XDM!

I use an XD .45 as my EDC. I like it for what I bought it for. It goes bang every time and if I do ever have to use it for self-defense, I won't feel too bad when the cops take it away from me.

Inor is so right.

A cheap gun is unreliable, is not accurate, and fits the users needs poorly.
A inexpensive gun will do the job every time you pull the trigger without breaking the bank.
I believe you have a Taurus G2 with a 30 round magazine placed in your house where you can get to it quickly. At least you used too.

That is a great example of an inexpensive gun. I own 3 of them and keep two on my vehicles and one in my GHB.

Thus sayeth the frog…

There was a story I read a few years back . . . guy had a really high end 1911 . . . and I guess it was "purty" as well.

Used it in an altercation . . . cops took it "for evidence" of course.

When he finally got it back a couple years later . . . barrel was shot out . . . scratched from stem to stern . . . filthy dirty.

There was more to it . . . don't recall all of it . . . made me quit carrying my pretty little Springfield . . . except for BBQ parties.

May God bless,

I kinda feel the same way, I'm sure most of us here can carry what ever they want, I'm very fond of Sigs and Colts along with a many revolvers but what I choose to to carry is a inexpensive Kahr CW9, it shoots very well and wouldn't break the bank if it disappeared one way or another. BTW I shot my first S&W Shield at the range the other day and liked it so if one comes my way one day that my be another carry option.
