Nice pistolas Steve. As usual the wife is sexier. How is the .45 recoil on that XD?
I abandoned all semi auto calibers except 9MM. Just concentrate on managing 9's for recoil and consistency. I have a couple pocket pistols in .380 for when I wear gym shorts. Other than that it's wheel guns in a couple calibers. The queen of the safe is a sweet 6" Colt Python. The best revolver ever made imo.

I knew you was a revolver guy. Safe Safe Safe. You want a sure thing. Did I tell you I bought a new 340 PD a few years ago for my dad. Took him out to shoot it. 3rd shot , wadcutters , it locked up. Something broke inside. Had to send it in with 2 live rounds. Nothing is for sure. By the way , I love S&W revolvers. That Python is nice also. Just messin with ya.
Evening Stroguy et al .Have an XDs in 45 that has snappy recoil but my XD 45 and S&W 645 are very relaxing to plink with.May have to get on the 9 bandwagon but old school thought was to weigh opposition down with lead and solve problem at your leisure..
Hello oldguy. I am somewhat embarrassed to admit I have never fired a .40 but from all accounts that is the term all use for it....snappy. I have shot plenty of .45 and 10MM with the .45 being no problem and the 10MM being a beast. But carrying a 10MM during hiking or fishing adventures is becoming common practice. It is a formidable slug and especially if using a hot load from Buffalo Bore there aren't to many animals in North America that can stand up to a Glock mag full of 10MM.

Wow shooter. What was the diagnosis on that 340?

The little pawl that turns the cylinder was defective. I knew the cylinder was a little tight but chocked it up to being new. S&W was very nice about it. Fixed it. They asked me what they could do for me. They did a trigger job on the 340 and I had a model 36 with a scratch on the cylinder. They put a new cylinder on at no charge. 5 day turn around on the 340. 6 days on the 36. I have owned more than a hundred of their guns. Got a little back on that one.
I know the pawl. I had a Model 29 in the 80's that had the same issue. Didn't totally fail but didn't do what it was supposed to.
