all good stuff but uh... I think we got a tad bit off track. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/cool.gif" alt="" />

so I think from now on Im going to go with 9mm instead on .40 cal. I'm mostly a paper puncher and that extra $5 or so just means more holes I can punch with 9mm. I'm sure if I was in situations that put my safety at higher risk I could justify the price for the added punch of .40 but I look back and can't see any reason for the extra $$$ I was dishing out.

I'm liking the FNX9 and/or the XD9 at this time. I will eventually get the FNX9 as my go to firearm because the controls are very similar to my FNP45. I really like my FNP45 and it would be great for hd but it is a little to bulky to lug around. I want the XD9 just because it caught my interest with the Glock comparisons and doesn't have the odd Glock feel.
