Great review from hickok45. What caught my attention was his comment on the trigger. He seemed to like the Shield's trigger better, but also stated that his T&E XDs was feeling better the more he shot it.

I still have two on pre-order, but I have to send some money to Glock for one of the new G29 Gen4 pistols. It actually bumped the XDs out of first place in my list.

Thanks for the link, MA!

I'm with you!
If I got one (fat chance on my meager budget), first thing I would do would be change out that front sight...

I can't take credit for that... I saw it in someone's signature.

I'm going to wait for the SR45 to come out. I like putting Americans to work, that just me.

Hickok45 is a great gun salesman. Every time I watch his video I want a new gun!

I like his reviews, for the most part. I do find it intriguing, VERY INTRIGUING that he likes the xds and dislikes the g36, kinda makes me want to check one out.

Great review from Hickock as usual. Honestly though, made me want it less. Just not as excited about this one as I was. Seems like a great little gun though, just probably not for me.

I actually wouldn't mind picking one of those up for the hell of it.

I don't own any 22mag autos.

He could make a lot of money renting his range out by the hour. I know I would pay upwards of $50 per hour for it if I lived reasonably close.

If you don't like Hickcock45, turn in your man card.

I heard 9mm is already in the works. 40 is not, but certainly not out of the question either.
