    Get over it. Proper sentences start with a capital letter as well. As long as I can understand what a person is trying to tell me I do not need to prove that I know some trivial piece of information that makes minimal, if any difference, in understanding what they were trying to communicate. We are not in a firearms forum, nor do most of us have the background or occupation where that bit of knowledge would make any real difference.

        I can not stand the sharp recoil and gutlessness of the 9mm round. It's cheap and that's the only reason why people use it.

        If I want to carry a handgun for personal protection I don't carry about ammunition cost.

              9mm Federal Hydroshock +P+ ammo delivers good power and is not cheap, only choice really for if your target is not paper.

                Go ahead, correct it. Its already been done though by somehow a lot smarter than you are. Here, let me help with youre posts while I am at it. Someone already pointed out the difference. Frankly I don't care enough to learn it so I will now refer to it as clip/magazine and anyone who cares enough can pick out the right answer.

                  Excuse me, "youre" is actually spelled "you're."

                    I think we both have the point. I frankly don't care enough to learn the difference between clip and magazine, despite several explanations. You don't care enough ot use capital letters, and I don't care enough to double check my grammar. For the record, your in possessive is not you're but I was still off. I agree with the general idea that we both let it go and I probably should not have made it into a dicussion in the first place.

                        Automatic Colt Pistol - 45ACP is the name of the ammunition, there are several 45 ammos out there.

                        Basically, and my understanding is not as great as many on these boards, is Springfield Arms basically took a Glock, reverse engineered it, looked at features people would like added to them, cut the price, and offered the pistol. I personally like the Glocks better, though neither would be my first choice in a pistol. Not that either are bad choices in my opinion, I just like others better.

                          Went to buy my Glock 37 today and they didnt have any so I didnt buy a gun.
                          Went back home and then to the firehouse and the police chief was there.

                          They are placing a order for there police and I got in on it.

                          I am now getting a new Springfield Armory XD .40cal for $200

                            it also comes with hard case, two clips, mag loader, holster w/attacthment spots. and double magazine holder.

                            I could have got a 9mm or a .40cal for $200 or a .45cal for $325 Didnt think the .45 was worth the extra $125 though. Although its still cheaper then retail

                              Being stuck in jersey 13+1 does'nt do anything for me. They really only like 10

                              I should say, being stuck in jersey 10 weeks and still waiting for my permit

                              Otherwise all the other XD'S feel great in my hands.
