Default My new Gun

Hey guys, it's been taking me awhile, but I've finally got my new gun, the Springfield Armory XDM 3.8 Compact. Not to be confused with the standard 3.8 model. The compact model has the same slide, but a chopped down grip with a flush 13 round magazine. I can put a standard XDM's 19 round magazine and just squeeze the extended grip on it.

Here's some pics

No, I just got it today. Tomorrow, I'll hopefully get some trigger time. I got a box of range ammo for free, so you'll know I'll be putting them to good use.

Can you post a pic like the ones I've taken? That says "IMFDB" on a piece of paper so that we know it's yours?

Awesome, thanks. It's a good habit just to get into.

Nice purchase, and congrats! Have fun with it and tell us how it shoots when you get a chance.

EDIT: BTW, is that a Speer Gold Dot on the sign?

I cant wait for a 4.25 inch model, is springer listening

I think its cool you have 2 roles in one gun but a 3.8 is kinda short for that huge grip.
