By impressive, I just mean I didn't find it harsh at all. |

No this is a new model and completely different from the USP45. Go check out the new HK45. It's a really nice peice. | |

Thanks for the replies everybody!
The XD seems to be the general concensus. That's even what my excop buddy carried. Not a bad price either.
Does anyone care to comment on the FNP45, PX4, or Taurus 24/7? The Taurus' striker is always ready to fire. Meaning you don't have to cock it after pulling the trigger. Anyone have thoughts on that? | |

It's my opinion that repeat strike capability is really not an issue with modern loads-they have very few misfires. __________________

The only new Taurii I ever bought was a 24/7 Pro. The trigger reset failed after less than one week and about 100 rounds downrange. It took Taurus 10 or 12 weeks to repair and return the gun - which I immediately traded off.
I will not purchase Taurus again. There are just to many guns on the market in the same price range that do not have the QC issues. I believe they built in the "double-strike" capability because light primer strikes are a common problem for a lot of their guns. Taurus can make decent guns (metal mostly) as I've had a couple of their 1911s as well as a couple of their Beretta clones and they were solid...

I could make a list of a bunch of guns i have, or "have", or wish I had. Why would one feel compelled to provide that infornation freely? Do you feel the need to show off? Is it some immature game of oneupsmanship?
Why do you feel it necessary to list your guns? | |

MY 24/7C 9mm was awesome. Super accurate and carried well.
My 24/7 9 service shot poorly brand new, sent it in, 6 weeks later I recieved it and they'd put a new barrel in it. Accuracy rivals my HK USP 9.
Just bought another 24/7 9 4" for 250, has a broken extractor, so it just shipped out tonight. __________________

I'd say contact Springfield Armory and ask about their police discount on XDs. It applies top LEO or Military. Or, check out Gun for Sale - Discounts for Qualified Customers__________________
