I'll keep this short. I own .45 and 9 XDS.. Because of this video I purchased the XDM .45 5.25 competition series. You were right I'VE NEVER SHOT ANYTHING AO ACCURATE. Thanks for the info. I give you all the credit, you were dead on with your review. Wish I could show you the first groups. Outstanding!!!!!
The XD-XDM Series are very Accurrate i shot the XDM-40 my buddy purchased it was smoother than my Glock-23 GEN4 congrat on finishing college and your new toy!!
I bought an XDM9 5.25 two months ago and have not reviewed it yet! Love it, my favorite range gun... I bring it with me every range trip no matter what, enjoy bro!
I love your videos because I can tell you have passion for guns and express it in your videos, not that you give us a shit load of non-usable information. Thank you and dont stop putting out videos
I just picked up a XDM .45 4.5 with the same package you have. SA stopped production of the kit two or three years ago. I found a NIB or New Old Stock on Gun Broker. I love it. I also really like the magazine pouch and holster and I use it all the time for EDC. Yes that full size pistol isn't that difficult to conceal.
Good no BS review. I have the 9mm model XDm in 5.25 and I put an after market trigger and it made a big difference. I am gonna get 2 more in the 9mm - 3.8 to leave around the house and I might get the 45 in 5.25 for shits and grins. One thing... I recommend the Crimson Trace Lightguard™ for home defense and to carry in the truck. It works great with the XDm series.
There are 10 round mags that will work with the XDM. The reason we can't get this pistol in Califonria is because its not on the DOJ approved list. All Gen 4 glocks are also a no go in Califonria. We can have all the Gen 3's wee want. Its stupid but its the situation we are currently dealing with.
You're right that Glock "evolved" with the Gen4 but so did the XD. The XDm is an improved version of the Croatian HS2000. Every system can be improved upon. With that said I have a G19 Gen 3 & a G19 Gen4 and have no issues sticking with the Gen3. It should also be noted that if I needed a .45 it would be an XD/XDm because of the much smaller circumference of the grip. The Glock 21 (my first handgun ever) was a chunky bitch. Good shooting and good luck with the job search!!!
You cant go wrong with either one, they are both great guns in great calibers. I would say that is always cheaper to shoot 9mm that 45 acp. I think I might end up having both though.
But if you dont reload 45 is a lot more expensive to shoot. 45 is much smoother but only 13+1 rounds. The 9 is a SWEET 19+1 and you can really shoot some competition with it. One thing that is a disappointment is the stock 7lbs trigger, but dropping the $125 powder valley trigger kit in there fixes that problem. By the way his hammer/striker is not down.
Do you know, or could measure the length of the barrel to the base of the cartridge casing with one in the barrel? I checked the measurement of my Walther P99, which claims to have a 4" barrel, but the lenth is actually 4 1/4" with a cartridge in it... obviously stripping it down to measure. Reason I ask is that I'm very interested in picking this up for deer hunting, and Wisconsin requires a length of 5 1/2" from barrel end to firing pin. Of course I'd use it for recreation & CC too. :)
I Own The Springfield Armory XDM 3.8 40. cal, and i Love it , i love it so much im gonna go buy another one, also i have some Glocks but i love my XDM....
Men use speed loaders too bud, it doesn't make you less of a man. When we go shooting we shoot several hundred rounds, you can't tell me that your hands won't get tired after the first couple of hundred. Not talking smack, just letting you know that it's alright for everyone to use a speedloader.
I guess its the natural progression of things to evolve, but when glock evolved they totally fucked up their reliability rep with the new changes.I have XDs and XDMs and they have never had a failure of any kind, but i can say the same about my gen 3 glocks
M&p trigger is good ? I do like think u know what you talking about first u going on about xdm like it’s the best thing since discovering electricity a now unsay m&p trigger is good???its most horrible trigger in striker pistol

Favorite quote of the video "I ain't sayin get hipoint..." Lmao Great review man

I just got mine a couple days ago and I agree with you it’s a awesome gun!!

Gonna be hard to make that choice. But you can shoot major with the 45 and that gains you some point scoring advantage for sure.
XDm is the truth son. I'd put it against anything out there.
congratulations on your graduation!!!!!!!
Great buy bud. I like the cut out on the frame for the .45. It makes it much lighter
thanks bro it was a long road...the pistol is amazing
Thanks for the review of the XDM .45 This will be my next pistol!
Bro the XDM is my favorite gun. The XDM 3.8 is my & my wife's EDC. I getting the 4.5 soon too. Also congrats on graduating

I hope my XDS that I'm picking up tomorrow is that accurate! Nice shooting Tex
Beautiful gun, great shooting and congrats on your graduation!
10-4 they shoot Awesome!!
bad ass gun bro
You cant go wrong with either one, they are both great guns in great calibers. I would say that is always cheaper to shoot 9mm that 45 acp. I think I might end up having both though.
First off congratulations on your education. So important!! Nice pistol also. Stay safe.
Thanks bro
Also send it to Bill Springfield, he does great trigger jobs on XD's.

recoil is not bad, no worse than any other large frame .45

i hope so too bro...happy shooting
.45 A C friggin P awsome
good shooting!
but still it would be very hard for me to get XD instead of glocks or m&p's
I Own The Springfield Armory XDM 3.8 40. cal, and i Love it , i love it so much im gonna go buy another one, also i have some Glocks but i love my XDM....
If you've never experienced a ftf (failure to feed) or another malfunction you haven't been shooting long enough.
Nice '86 Roadblock figure in box.
I have all three and love them all equally
The loader your speaking of is called a speed loader and it simply helps you reload quickly
found one of these nib, 8 rounds through it, for $625 was looking for something for HD but this came up. how do you think it will serve in for HD use?
Your fingers don't look too long, did you have any trouble with the wide magazine?
"If you're a man period, you don't need an autoloader...unless you have arthritis." LOL! XD
Thanks bro...I have a glock 23 also and my xdm 40 cal is more accurate but i am a pretty good shot with both
Men use speed loaders too bud, it doesn't make you less of a man. When we go shooting we shoot several hundred rounds, you can't tell me that your hands won't get tired after the first couple of hundred. Not talking smack, just letting you know that it's alright for everyone to use a speedloader.
At how many yards were the targets?
I bought a xd mod 2 45acp not long ago but seeing this I might buy this one also
Were u shooting this targets at 3 ft.?
I guess its the natural progression of things to evolve, but when glock evolved they totally fucked up their reliability rep with the new changes.I have XDs and XDMs and they have never had a failure of any kind, but i can say the same about my gen 3 glocks
yeah its accurate as hell...I didnt have to adjust the sights
Congratulations on College. I drove Truck for a short time. I hate driving with other jerk offs.
How do you send it to him.
Subbed...you should make more videos...good stuff
I eventually want the nine also
congratulations on school, and nice xd
Robocop carries a Desert Eagle .50.

M&p trigger is good ? I do like think u know what you talking about first u going on about xdm like it’s the best thing since discovering electricity a now unsay m&p trigger is good???its most horrible trigger in striker pistol
Again! Actually look at the video you comment on. This video is 11 years old. You can't be that slow

@christophercohen8712 Are you retarded or something? This was 12 years ago. I don't even have a XDM anymore.
Unless they have a version that holds only 10 rds. I dont believe so. sorry bro

what is the recoil on that?
Tex grebner did it. He shot himself and posted it on youtube
nice review. But everyone needs an autoloader :P
UPS Store
