I went to Cabela's today in an attempt to buy an XD40 4"......(2 local dealers have one in stock but I was the Fortunate recipient of some Cabela's gift cards.)
Anyway, long story short....they didn't have one.[:@] Only a 9mm Sub.

Everyone cross your fingers for me as they are calling to their other stores in an attempt to locate one.

Everything I have read and heard about these XD's has been overwhelmingly positive.
This is going to be my carry gun as well as vehicle/home. (I can see an M3 tac light in my future as well)

Akbound,
If you don't mind, you seem to be pretty well versed in the defense gun subject. This will be my first .40........Any recommendations on a good defense load for this particular model? (Also a nice cheap plinker style round to get a feel and help with break in before I trust it fully.)

Wolf killer,
What rounds are you carrying on the job?

Come on Cabela's......find one.
