If you have pictures on your computer just click on User CP, then Pictures & Albums. From there you can add an album and upload a picture.

Read-up on the newer XD-M series, got a SA no-frills XD-9 sub-compact, 9mm 10+1 as my primary CC. Love it! Except for the safety on the M series, I hear that's now an optional gizmo? Do any patrons own the older XD's (any Cal) and an XD-M, if so what makes it anything but a bit more expensive? Was thinking of trading in and up 2 the same model I have in the M as I hear it will accept a Crimson Trace.
Any takers?

I've got an XD9 service. It was my first handgun and I use it for home defense and occasional carry. The XD is my favorite gun and I practice with it at least once a month.

I usually carry my SW 642 because of hot weather and shorts/t-shirt attire. As the season cools down and I get back into wearing more clothing I'll be carrying the XD more.

Default My XD's

Here are my favorite 2 XD's:

One is the .40S&W Subcompact, the other is the .45 compact. Both are in OD Green..... these are my favorite pistols:

I have an XD45 Tactical in bi-tone. I just bought an XDM in bi-tone for my wife. She has never been satisfied with the feel of her Glock 23. When she picked up the XDM in the store she immediately commented how nicely it fit her hand with the small backstrap in place. Say no more, I surprised her with a brand new XDM within the week. Since getting the XDM her shooting accuracy has improved due to the fact that the gun fits her hand. ....And yes we like our XD's! I'm just waiting for the XDM to come in a compact to replace my Glock 23 as my primary carry piece.

My wife has the XD-M...I did not know that they came with an external safety. The one we got was just like the original XD except it comes with a match barrel, interchangeable backstraps, better grip, better trigger and you don't have to pull the trigger when you are field stripping to clean. I do think it is an improvement over the original XD's. It is, especially long in the grip, to be a carry gun, in my opinion...but that is because it carries 16+1 rounds of .40S&W, which is another feature of the gun. I had Springfield Armory put on night sights and it is my wife's range gun/home defense weapon. When/if they come out with a compact model I will probably retire my Glock 23 as my primary carry gun.

Mine is an XD-9 service 4"..........
its the only thing I carry due to its size weight and it just feels right. I use an Ace holster belt/clip with extra clip. not exactly a conceal package, but Im more concerned about the carry.
sorry no pic,mines the new XD-s........ stealth
