I am including that in the statement. If it was just the Desert Eagle, I would take it as an anomaly, but I hate the XD. I hate it for two main reasons:

1. It doesn't have a hammer. (which is why I hate Glocks, too)

2. People buy it thinking they're supporting an american gun company (thanks to SA's ad campaign), but it's a Croatian gun.

I dont think I'm supporting an American Gun company. Hell the SA that is around today isnt even the same SA that was originally started in the 1800's, its a completely different company.

You bought the XD because you were impatient and didn't want to save the extra $150 to buy a Sig.

No, you just lack weapons expertise, so we're here to help you poor, misguided, inbred people.

Also PM blaxican25. He probably has forgotten more about guns then I'll ever know.

It's the best 1911 for the money, if not the best gun for the money out there right now.
Damn nobody listens to me.

My dad is great friends with a gun dealer in Maine, I can get a great deal on almost anything. The Taurus PT1911 is my next purchase for a firearm.
