Autoloaders: other than1911s
I really like my compact XD 45’s. I have two, owned 3 so far, will have more. and they both shoot to point of aim for me and are reliable and easy to pack. I like the trigger and the compact grip frame with the option of the high capacity full size magazines. I had the opportunity, recently, to handle and shoot about 15 models and calibers of XD/XDm. I prefer the 45 compact for it’s caliber and versatility.
I still have my 1911’s and several Glocks the 1911’s are hard to beat, flat and easy to conceal accurate and reliable. The Glocks are work horses just tools with absolutely no sentimental value. Probably the same for the XD’s BUT, they are SO pleasant to shoot, much better trigger and they point better for me than any of Gaston’s guns. I have shot several SIGs, the DA action just turns me off. I prefer my Tangfaglio copy of a CZ -75 with it’s cocked & locked carry.
