Family camping/paddling trip?  Heron or Abique lakes maybe?

[bonfy]

I'm in!     I'll bring my kayaks and windsurfer.  They are old relics circa 1992, but they get me around the lake.

Sounds like a good time for a reunion.

WOOT!  I bought a new toy today!

It's a Springfield Armory XD in 9mm.  It came with the holster, speed loader, extra 16-round magazine with double sheath.  Springfield is also running a special through select dealers for 2 (additional) free high capacity magazines with a sheath.  That means I scored 4 high-cap mags with purchase.

I'll try to put it through it's paces this weekend.

Sorry Zaster, I had to skip on the Glock as they simply don't fit my hands (even if they are made in Austria. )

Nice toy!! 
Glock is like you said Austrian and not  German (they can't stand each other) and probably pretty pricey.
I always liked the 9mm while using it in the Uzi and I think that caliper is underrated for what it can do.
Let me know when you're ready for some target shooting competition

[Count Desmo]

Ha!  I won't be ready for competition any time soon...I'm kinda rusty.  I already own another 9mm (a Taurus PT111) but wanted another in anticipation of our concealed carry class later this month.  Jackie and I are both getting our CC permits.  I plan on qualifying with a .45 but doubt I will ever carry one. 

I'm actually a big fan of the 9mm.  Many people rave about the .40 S&W, but I find them way too loud and think they have too much recoil for Jackie's comfort.  9mm cartridges can be had for about $.25 per round which is a nice bonus if you plan on firing a lot.  I wanted both pistols to use the same round.  I considered another PT111, but wanted more than 10 rounds in the mag.

[Punx Clever]

Shoulda got the .45 model. Not just because it's .45 ... but because you can change it over to all the other calibers in the XD line.

Otherwise, nice pistols! My buddy has one.

[Count Desmo]

Nah, if I wanted a .45 I'd buy a 1911.

I ran about 100 rounds through it today at the range.  Needless to say, I'm ver pleased with my choice.  It came down to the Springfield and the FN, but the extra mag offer and the available accessories for the XD helped make up my mind.

[Scottish]

I've had more than a couple, and shot an azz load. My 9mm Ruger is my fav ever. Not a Glock fan, never tryed your new toy.... mainly just checking in to say I like the 9mm round.

[Punx Clever]

Nah, if I wanted a .45 I'd buy a 1911.

Oh, I completely agree... thats why I own a kimber.  Just bringing up the fact that the XD is a VERY versitile gun that can have calibers swapped VERY easy.
