Congrats on the new addition! You won't regret it.
Look so "joyous & festive" against the Christmas Kitty placemat backdrop :laugh:
The XDs (all S.A. I believe) is made in Croatia so sure it was shipped with a good slathering of cosmoline. Must be selling so well your Dealer didn't have a chance to prep for delivery when received.
Ole Mr. Wizard seems to have fueled quite the Craze...
The exterior was clean, the inside of the slide, the barrel and the recoil springs were dripping in oil. I used to have a XD 40, was a nice shooting gun, just a little too long and heavy for my taste. This XDs feels just right and I'm sure it will shoot well for me also. I figured the Christmas kitty place mats would make a fitting backdrop for a present from me to me:laugh:.
