Advice? you’ll get plenty so I will start with: Get a Springfield XD. One hole gun out of the box. 14 rounds of .45ACP in your hand.

I was looking at the Springfield, the dealer favored the S&W (partly becuase it’s American made). He’s keeping the S&W under $500 for me.

I'll second the motion. XD-45 is an awesome pistol. As for plastic, I have the XD-45, a Glock 23 and a HK USP Compact 40...all outstanding pistols.

AGREED! My wife got me one for Fathers day/Birthday (What a woman!). A very sweet piece. The most reliable auto I know of so far.
