It's not what I think. It's what _they_ think. The belief that everything can be solved by police and no one should take an active role in their own well being. Nanny state stuff.Galen said:

I just wrote someone an essay more or less on this topic
Funny how more people are killed in large populated areas than more rural parts of the country.
edit: My point being that self-defense laws should be more in favor of those living in densely populated areas than not.

Heavy populations and close proximity to one another breeds feelings of anger and claustrophobia. Country bumpkins only kill each other for their women and booze.

Occasional carry and just recreation, yes.
My only concern initially between .40 and 9mm was cost, and when I found that on average .40 is only $1 or $2 more per box than 9mm I was sold on it. The recoil with the XD is extremely light, it feels even lighter than some of the 9mm's that I've shot in the past.

40s are the best carry weapons, in my opinion. Easy to handle like you said, good knock down power, and easy to conceal. And Springfield makes a great gun. I'm waiting to pick up their 1911 full-size.

I believe we looked at that gun while shopping for the XD. It is a sweet pistol and feels great to hold.

It took a moment to get used to that beavertail grip safety, but then it just felt really comfortable in my hand and I didn't want to put it back down.
While it would be nice to own a gun, I would never carry it with me. I'd end up shooting myself somehow.
I'd rather cap a bunch of fools with paintballs. That way you can shoot your buddy in the face and then go out drinking after you're done.

cowboys (and one German Colonel) got up out of the cemetery and put the whole town under the gun.
