  1. Not yet. I have not run into an issue with it being off yet. Have you? I am starting to feel the same way about this .40S&W. Although, I am sure something better and more appealing will come along eventually.
  2. Yet another nice DSM ruined because of the carelessness of a fucking idiot who doesn't know how to properly drive his car. The fact that he blames the DSM owner for the wreck is ridiculous.
  3. This is a great thread. I was looking at AR15s the other day at my favorite local gun shop. I have my eye on a S&W M&P.
  4. WOW. I just researched that a bit and saw the $250 price tag. I think it is a bit steep, but it looks like a good unit and worth the money. I appreciate this link. I almost bought the 9mm just for the 19+1 capacity. It honestly had me in a huge debate. I'm happy with my decision though. I looked at the M&P before I saw the XDm. I was actually sold on it until a guy in a local gun shop said "hey, check out this Springfield" and that was all it took. The M&P is a great gun though. Like said below though, I have never once heard of a reliability issue with the XD/XDm. Damn! I'm seriously considering the replacement of my Bersa (CC gun) in favor of the XD9sc. If you carry it, how do you like it?
  5. "You Can't Do That (On Television)" is not on there. No "Hey Dude", "Wild and Crazy Kids", "Are You Afraid of the Dark?", ... meh. Good intentions, but needs modified.
  6. I'd like to start shooting Limited.
  7. Yeah the light combo is a bit too big. If I had to do it all over again I would have just went with the flashlight only. I spent the extra few bucks on the laser combo as more of an impulse buy. Oh well. I'll keep this one until the batteries die and then buy a smaller flashlight only setup.
  8. So I bought this a few weeks ago to finally get into competition shooting. The best selling point for me was the 16+1 capacity. I almost bought the 9mm version to get the 19+1 capacity, but after a little more consideration I decided that I wanted the extra knock-down of the .40S&W. So, I made the compromise and I'm glad I did. When I first pulled it out of the case I noticed immediately how comfortable it was in my hand. The gun comes with three different back straps (S,M,L). While this seems a bit overkill at first, it is actually quite nice. I opted for the medium. http://i38.photobucket.com/albums/e120/Sugarfuzz/IMAG0837.jpg http://i38.photobucket.com/albums/e120/Sugarfuzz/IMAG0838.jpg The gun shoots very well. I have put about 50 rounds through it so far. I have not had the chance to comp shoot with it yet, but I have a feeling that it will be great for it. For eight years or so, my home defense gun has been my Mossberg 12gauge--but not anymore. The XDm now takes care of that for me as well. I made the decision a few days ago to buy a Vector Optics tactical flashlight/laser combo for it while it is being used for home defense. I quite like the flashlight (200 lumens), but the laser has a little to be desired. After a few rounds the laser goes out of alignment. I fully expected this, but I bought this unit primarily for the flashlight so it is not a huge concern for me. http://i38.photobucket.com/albums/e120/Sugarfuzz/IMAG0840.jpg I will not be using this gun for concealed carry. It is a bit too big for me to make that commitment. As of now, my Bersa Thunder .380ACP still remains my CC gun of choice. Does anyone else have any experience with the XD/XDm? This is my first Springfield, but certainly not my last.
  9. Wow. That is versatile as hell. I just shot a Judge about two weeks ago and I loved it. This really steps it up a notch.
  10. Why were you having trouble with a park ranger?
  11. I just shot one of these today. This is a great gun! GLWS
  12. Next weekend should be fun for those new tires.
  13. I use a farm spray from Tractor Supply called CV80D. You can spray it on an insect and it immediately fucks up their central nervous system. If I remember correctly, it doesn't actually say it works on spiders but it does. I spray around the lower corners of my garage maybe once every two weeks or so. It seems to repel them for a good while.
  14. Fuck yeah! Next weekend will be extra fun for you! My Civic needs new pads before then. They are now squealing.
  15. It can handle it. He was in FStock. heh. Come on out guys! The next one is on July 9th.
  16. Cool! I didn't think anyone got video. You're welcome! There are some more events coming up soon that you can go to. I think they will be at National Trails. If you don't feel like running the car again, just come by and ride along with me. With my fat ass throwing the balance off in my car, I could always use a passenger.
  17. Wait...did you guys leave the jake brake on while running the Audi? Skinner, none of us got video of the S4 because we had to work while they ran. Unless Sean or Pat got video after they showed up...
