Default Picked up a Springfield XDS

Added it to the collection, saw it for the first time up here in AK and couldn't talk myself out of it... I hope to shoot it this week, but for now it has a great feel and fits in my pocket with no printing! Here's a couple pics...

I placed an order and paid for one last monday with a local gun shop. As soon as they get their next shipment I'll go pick it up.

Let me know when you get it in. I'd like to tag along to the range if you wouldn't mind. I've got a few toys you might like to shoot for a few rounds with your XDs.

Wow, took it out last night and this thing shoots awesome. Pops right up on target and recoil is very managable, I am even more satisfied with my purchase.

Put 200 FMJ 230 grain rounds through it after an initial clean/oil and then cleaned it and went through 2 boxes of Hornady hollow points with no jams, failure to feeds, or any other issue. Needless to say, this will be on my waistband for a while!

DR132, it's a .45 caliber gun.
