I'm no leo, but as I understand it. detectives in suits or plainclothes can carry pretty much whatever they want. in N.H. in 1975-78 the uniformed cops carried 38's and only troopers were issued 357's. then they changed to uniforms getting 357's also, and I made out like a bandit selling 38's. then the 9mm semi's came in, then 40's. I don't think I'd wanna lug around a hi-cap 45 all day or try to conceal it. if in open sight and with the right belt/holster it's another story.
The XDS is just bad ass... lol.. 6 +1 of .45 . 1" thick.. It carries very well.. Did find out Springfield is going to be bringing that gun out in 9mm and .40. But as of right now , it only comes in .45 ..
Micah, have been hearing of some issues with the small 3.5" barrel 1911s. Have done tune-ups on a few at the shop, full polishings, new springs and such. Then they run pretty good. Anyways, that is a hell of a price for that Kimber, just sold a used one at the shop with the Crimson Trace grips, galco holster, and 4 mags for $1200.00 used.....
I was looking at a kimber today ultra carry ll shop. Seemed like a good price at $875. Not sure if I can swing it or not but am going to try. Comes with a $200 holster and a couple extra mags.
That's a pretty good price with the holster. On gunbroker the Kimber Ultra Carry II's are listed from $650-1200.00. Most selling in the $750-850 range.... The whole idea is to find one there and have it shipped for around $650.00 OTD. That's the game...
Nice little .45's too.... This coming from a SIG SAUER man....
Nice find! I like my 357 snubbie revolver but, it not easy to shoot. At some point a 1911 is in the pic. (My dad swears by them -- Of course he is an ex Marine) I think a 45 is the way I would like to go too.
i love my xd45 service model.it is my everyday ccw and my hunting sidearm
