    I got a Springfield XDm 40 and my girlfriend got the XDm 9mm. Im excited to try it out and hit the range with it. I have heard nothing but good things about the XDm. A HUGE THANKS goes out to Mrs. Kim at Slidell Arms. Very nice people and they gave me a GREAT GREAT GREAT DEAL on the gun. They were WAY cheeper than every other place I checked out ... and I did alot of reserch before my purchase. I would HIGHLY recomend going to see Mrs. Kim at Slidell Arms for any kind of gun. they give special discounts to bayoushooter members :)

    Congrats on the purchase. Unfortunately, I think you made a slight logistical mistake by buying the .40 AND the 9. I would have recommended getting both in the same caliber so as to be able to swap mags and ammo. That's my unrequested opinion, take it for what it's worth.

    We will post up some pics after we go shooting on tues. We just went and got a bunch of ammo for the range. I can alredy tell this is going to be very addicting. Just one more thing for me to spend money on but its worth it.
