    May was a good month for .45's

    Found these on a motorcycle sport bike page in the general sales section.

    Couple of kids needing tire money and both are like new. Boxes kit with holster loader and magazine carrier and eight magazines.



    I'm a happy boy.

    Wow. I am afraid to ask what you paid. In fact, please don't tell us, not matter how much we ask. It would be to painful.

    Congratulations. Let us know how they shoot.

    Nice!

    I've got a XD-45 Tactical and love it. Mine is black and stainless however. It came with a surprisingly good trigger.

    ;)

    For some reason the tactical does have the sharper trigger.

    They cost me two sets of Dunlop sport bike tires mounted and balanced. I found a deal at a local bike parts chain store where if you bought the tires at the sale price the mount and balace was free. I just had pull the wheels of the bikes

    I didn't know one had the log barrel till I went to do the transfer.

    I sold some Finnish rifles at the beginning of the month then bought this USP .45 it shoots OK but for what they want for them new you should get a more refined trigger.



    May was my .45 month,,LOL.

    Honestly I will have to spend some more time with the USP to be fair. But stright away the XD Tactical is very balanced and easy to shoot from the get go. Next time out I won't mix them it will be one or the other only.

    Nice pistols man, I had an XD45 a few years back and liked it too. Sold it cause I was short on cash at the time. Now my 45 is a USP 45 Tac and like it much more. I agree on the USP on the trigger being kinda heavy, you can adjust it if you want. But both are fun guns.

    I'm kind of digging this plastic stuff, washes up with soap and water. I think I'll put the iron stuff away for a while. I kind of like the silver and black job.

    Notic e how I did all this without quoting and re-posting anyone pictures, that just eats up space.

    Cabela's has them on sale this week for $169, if they were closer I'd go buy one just so I could go akimbo...
