I have to admit, in order to get me to switch to something else, that "something else" has to offer some significance over what I already have. The SA's are nice, but do not surpass the Glock far enough to get me to switch my love of the original plastic guns. But if ya want, you can buy me a nice XDM for Christmas....if you're feeling generous, of course. :-) MrScottly#54

Is there a patent history on the SA XD M? Looks like an offshoot of the old Browning patent that Sig Sauer System bought a few decades ago. Does anyone keep track of that stuff anymore? I threw out a bunch of old design articles/books and was surprised by the lack of discussion available on the internet - assuming I Googled correctly. -- JMark

I'm not crazy about Glocks straight out of the box but there's a lot that can be done in terms of blueprinting and aftermarket parts that make them much better.

Sadly, thanks to the gun laws in this country, all I can do is sit and dribble over the keyboard while looking at the Sig website. Nice pistols. Ah, I know of a shop near Greensburg that has an indoor range. Think I might have to pop down there next trip. Cheers Aitch |
