I'm ecstatic!
I bought my first pistol today, a SA XD 9mm 5" tactical, I couldn't be much happier. As a perk, the gun club I'm a member to gave me a free mp5 rental. I'll be glad to get my CCW in a few weeks...after that I'll probably get a gun that I can *actually* conceal. A 5" tactical pistol is kinda hard to hide on a small-medium build guy.
