Hey all,
I did some work at the range today and tried out a variety of new toys. Shot the Glock 23, Sig 225 and 229 and SW 99. The Sigs are fantastic, but unfortunately out of my price range even when they are used (I'd llike to stay under 500). The .40 Glock was pretty good, but their lack of safeties is kinda stearing me away from Glock all together. I like the de-cock feature of Sig and Walther, but Glocks had none of those, I didnt even know if there was a round in the chamber etc. I finally caught on to the fact that new handguns don't have the traditional disengage type safety that i thought would be standard. So with that said, I looked at the Springfields. They felt like a cross between the Glock and Sig (but i never shot it). I really liked the the indicator on the weapon that shows if its cocked, and if it has a round in the chamber. Plus the grip safety was great as well. What are your thoughts on the Springfield XD 9mm or .40? I shot both calibers today, and am very successful with both. Any suggestions welcomed!
