Kinda defeating the purpose of getting the subcompact no?


My XD40SC is still stock. Been trying different kinds of ammo in it lately.

Is that an extended magazine sticking out of your pants, or are you just happy to see someone?

I would only buy a subcompact gun if I intended to carry it....

The XDs are a nice light durable carry piece... I can't stand 9s though, hands down 45 for me. JMO.
I'm also not a fan of the extended mags, I like the balance of them the way they were intended with a loaded stock capacity clip. If I need more than a clip I'll slap another in. Honestly they are for carrying so those mags defeat the purpose, again JMO though.

Nice gun man!

That's what I figured on the ex-mag and light and it's a good idea. I always imagined what some poor sob would be thinking if he climbed in my window and saw my arms extended towards him with a light and laser shining at him.

I have Glocks and I was tired of switching magazines and removing tactical lights so I convinced my wife that SHE needed another gun...that way I have my beside .45 ready for intruders and I have my truck/person .45 for who knows what...

LMAO, that's what I have always told her when I show up with a new gun. Baby look what I got you! It's worked for 13 years so far, but I think I have pressed my luck a time or two.

She is like what ever honey, not like I even know what a AR15 is and why do they call guns silly names like that...why don't they keep it the same and call it a AK15 like the AK47 you got a few months ago...

I just tell her I love her at that point and give her a big ole grin.
