The price of ammo has really cramped my style for a good while now, but it's also cramping my training opportunities. I plan to attend 4 day sest of classes in two different states next year, and I absolutely cannot afford to feed my .45 for 8 days of intensive training. I did one of those courses with the Ruger SP101 last time, and I'll never take another class with a revolver unless it is a revolvers ONLY class.
I also want to begin to train seriously with the 9mm because, at some point, I'll probably do more and more CC - so whatever I buy will be my CC gun as well.
At this point I'm thinking that the XD subcompact 9mm would be the best, since I love the XD and the operation/maintenance would be the same as for the .45 I've carried for so long. I also already have an excellent holster for it.
I don't have a lot of money, so the fancy stuff is out of the picture from the get go. But I'm very open to suggestions. Some real (maybe documented?) reasons to consider other guns would be welcome. Just because you love yours best won't influence me too much. <big grin>
