    I will have to wait until the wife is out to take pictures. I don't want to open the safe when she is home or she might realize they have been breeding in there! :D

    Springfield XDS 3.3 9MM, 7 round mag with Pearce grip extension, 9 round mag, DARA IWB kydex holster.
    Springfield XDM 4.5 9MM, 19 round mag.

    I bought the XDS first and love it. I wasn't set on getting another XD "just because", but the XDM feels exactly the same...just bigger...and points the same. The trigger on the XDM is lighter, but the take-up, break, and reset are all pretty similar. Keeps things simple for me.

    I lost all my weapons, including hand cannons, several years ago in a terrible boating accident.

    It's sad how common boating accidents are becoming.

    Ruger SR1911. Such a fun gun to shoot, and a bargain as well. I waited almost 6 months for this one 4 years ago. At $555.00+Tax it was worth it.

    Does the M&P340 have some character marks on the cylinder?

    Yup, it survived a motorcycle crash.... it was in my left coat pocket and got some road rash. Its a carry gun, they have a finite lifespan. The XD 45 and the M&P both have night sights...... carry guns.

    My thoughts exactly. All my firearms are tools to be used. Some more than others, but non are abused.

    My M&P 9 and Shield wear night sights.

    Yup, the carry guns are as clean as can be reasonably managed, and functional. Practice with them at least biweekly.....

    Truth!
    I don't own queens. Mine get used. They might as well say snap on. Nothing but tools. Even the expensive ones get ran hard.
