Another new toy..., 1 was not enough. Options

Well, as some of you know, or remember, I recently purchased a Springfield Armory XD-9 Service model handgun:


9mm. Full grip. 4" barrel. 16rd clip. Auto-loading semi-automatic. Only addition so far is the Hogue grip in the 2nd picture. The laser is no longer there.

Well, it was good, but a deal came along that I could not pass up. So, I recently aquired a new XD. A Springfield Armory XD-40 Sub-Compact:

.40cal. 2-finger grip. 3" barrel. 1 normal clip(pictured). 2 high capacity magazines(which give a full grip). Night sights. I've also already ordered a Pearce Grip Extension for the standard clip.

It is approximately a 650+ dollar handgun. Also with it, I got 50 hollow-tip/self-defense rounds (31 Sheer, 19 Federal), and approx 150 range rounds. That's at least another 50+ dollar value. All for 400 dollars. Totally worth it.

Here they are together:

Awwww.

Anyway, I'm stoked. Hopefully I'll have my carry license sometime soon, seeing as how that was the main reason for this purchase. To carry it. Hopefully someone will give me the money for the course for my birthday or christmas.

So. Any update on anyone else's arsenal? .

Sorry, I meant that it didn't come back to level how I liked it...the M&P felt like it came back on target quicker between shots, whereas the XD felt a little heavy in the barrel, made it move around a little more.

Again, I think this is just a preference, because the two guns have about the same features and shoot similarly...the m&p just had a little less felt recoil and was a bit more comfy in my hand.
