Nice gun...... my favorite for now is a (as the guys calls it) a entry level 5in. Kimber Custom II 45. My guy just bought a Kimber 45 SIS 4 inch. Talk about a sweet gun, but pretty pricey. I have my heart set on the Kimber Crimson Trace in a 4 inch. I priced it last week and it was $1058.00. I also want to put night sights on it so there goes the price. To me gun shopping is like shoe shopping, always have to buy more. I also shoot Contenders, and my guy and I just purchased 4 custom barrels from Bulberry, 2 10 inch in 40SW, and 45 auto, and 2 8 inch in 38 Special and 9mm. Do any of you shoot Contenders?

Kimbers are nice, and I would like to have one, but it's not something I want. I don't think I would buy one now since I have the USP, if someone gave on to me I would take it haha.

Oh it will probably be a while. Depending on their personality I am pretty sure I want a female and I would name her Chloe.

I've been reading up on the Judge, interesting idea. I held the Glock 30 short frame and I know the mag didn't have anything in it, and that makes a difference, but it seemed a little top heavy, but then again I currently have a G23 .40 and I don't get that feeling, so maybe it was just because it wasn't ready to rock. I also checked out the XD and I was immediately turned off due the grip feeling very slippery. I felt as if I was in a high tense situation and had sweaty palms I would probably end up throwing the gun just trying to draw.

I have my CC..... and we have 2 Judges, a long barrel and a short barrel both stainless, bought them when the first came out. My guy use to put 5 -45's in and wince...it cost at that time $3.00 to shoot 5 rounds. We also (now) reload everything we shoot.

I carry a Bersa 380, and sometimes a Ruger SR9..... Not really fond of the SR9 throws the brass back on me. Have any of you shot the XDM 40... I'll ask again... do any of you shoot Contenders?
