LJ Posted November 24, 2009 Report Share Posted November 24, 2009 I agree with this statement... Though I did once lose a nice Benchmade in someone's chest at Vance's a couple of years ago. I didn't go back much after that. I go to Buckeye Outdoors mainly now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Putty Posted November 25, 2009 Report Share Posted November 25, 2009 Costs $22 bucks just to get a lane in there. Too much, imo. I am hoping that new range open on Alum Creek dr. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

87GT Posted November 25, 2009 Report Share Posted November 25, 2009 I've been to Ohio Valley before and the range was ok. Anyone been there before? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gaewsky1 Posted November 25, 2009 Author Report Share Posted November 25, 2009 Just got back from NASR. The wife killed a couple zombies at 50ft with a XDm. How do you like the XDm? I've been looking at those and either a Glock 19 or maybe a 26 but I haven't held the 26 yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SpaceGhost Posted November 25, 2009 Report Share Posted November 25, 2009 (edited) I like it, very easy to shoot, easy to disassemble and clean, comes with 2 magazines, a bunch of accessories, and a nice case. I've put over 1000 rounds through it and never had failure to feed or failure to eject. I've shot blazzer brass, and 2 types of Federal through it. Being able to hold 17 shots of .40 is pretty cool to me. It feels really solid in my hand as the grip does not slip in my hand. I need to get some night sights on it though. The different grip inserts are cool, I have small hands so the small grip is on mine. It comes with a Small, Med, and a Large grip insert. http://www.springfield-armory.com/videoWin.php?vidnum=1 http://www.springfield-armory.com/videoWin.php?vidnum=2 http://www.springfield-armory.com/videoWin.php?vidnum=3 http://www.springfield-armory.com/videoWin.php?vidnum=4 http://www.springfield-armory.com/videoWin.php?vidnum=5 http://www.springfield-armory.com/videoWin.php?vidnum=6 http://www.springfield-armory.com/videoWin.php?vidnum=7 http://www.springfield-armory.com/videoWin.php?vidnum=8 Edited November 25, 2009 by Benjamin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Never fit my hand quite right, but it shoots exceptionally well in spite of this. I know a guy who can do those NS very well. The older XDs were quite problematic and Gander even broke a few slides because they didn't understand the dis-assembly. He used to work at NASR awhile back.

87GT Posted November 25, 2009 Report Share Posted November 25, 2009 I like xds but I feel glocks fit my hand better. I don't really like the .40 I think the recoil is worse then a .45 at least in my experience. I really love 10mm rounds though and I would buy one if I had the money. Probably would need a reloader to fuel my addiction to shooting them! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you don't like the 40 because of the recoil you're going to HATE the 10mm.....lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't remember what model it was but it was one of the workers at NASR personal carry gun. I am only comparing that gun to an HK USP .40. I haven't shot any other .40.

I've only shot the Glock 10mm and it kicked a good bit harder than my Glock 22. The 40 came from the 10mm. The FBI cried and said their hand hurt everytime they had to shot a bad guy with their 10mm so to make a long story short the 40 was born.....

Dave1647545494 Posted November 28, 2009 Report Share Posted November 28, 2009 Where in central Ohio can you do any distance shooting? I can shoot on some private land in jacksontown its not exactly local but it isn't 2 hours away either there is a pretty good ranger at dillion sportsmans area in the state part (public) and centerburg has a conservation club with a good range (private) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
