My XD-45 service model has been a very reliable piece, but it just does not shoot as accurately as my Off-duty. I'd carry either one without hesitation.

Facepalm.

Also useful if you want to take out a home invader AND avoid the cost of a messy divorce, simultaneously.

I'd love for the XD45 to be my next purchase...but it probably won't be. Probably a 9mm SC.

Now that depends on what state you live in.

Or is it easier to keep pulling the trigger

Both take action to load, 1 keeps on firing, 1 has to be pumped again to fire.

Troy, I fondled an STI guardian, that'll be my next gun and made in TX ta boot!

That's what practice is for.

That's why you don't go "clearing the house" when it's you vs. however many other people. You hole up in one room, with your family. There's one door to watch. If anything comes through it, you shoot.

I don't give a shit about my TV, they can have it. That's what homeowner's insurance is for. I'm there to protect what can't be replaced.

True story.
