I am sure you will be happy with it. I can tell you when I had to wait to get my hands on the AR15 that I bought 2 years ago (It was the first firearm I ever bought) the 1.5 week wait was killing me. It got so bad I went out and picked up a 12ga supernova so I could have my hands on something to take to the range :D.
 
Hate to be the negative nancy here, but you should have stuck with the XD45c!!!

I think Sig makes great guns, but I'm not a fan of the SA/DA with no manual safety when it comes down to practical applications like concealed carrying. Personally, I like guns with NO manual safety, but only if they have nice, consistent trigger pulls like on a Glock or XD. I don't like how Sigs can only be carried with a crappy DA first shot. That first shot can mean the difference between life and death in a real gun fight. You don't want it to be a 12lb double action pull if you can help it!

XD is one solid, good shooting pistol with all the right safety features, and it still allows for a consistent and pretty decent trigger pull from the first shot to the last. In my opinion, the .45 compact happens to be their best offering in the XD line. Can't argue with 13+1 shots w/ the longer magazine either...

I'd stay with the XD and spend the extra $350 on night sights, extra mags, a holster, and ammo:)Good luck!

I like it. A little heavier trigger is added protection from something snagging on the trigger when holstering and causing an AD in your thigh. Also, I like the fact that they have exposed hammers that I make a point of keeping my thumb pressed down on when reholstering.

Now, in a SD scenario, either the BG wil be far enough away (several yards) where you have time to thumb back the hammer on the draw (easy if practiced, an extra 1/10th of a second)...or, if he's within bad breath range (3 yards or in), that heavier DA first shot isn't going to make a world of difference.
 
I carry a Sig P220 that has that
crappy DA first shot

as my duty weapon and let me tell you I will place that 1st crappy DA shot in the same area as the last SA shot. Go ahead and ask me how .......... PRACTICE.
Congrats on a VERY nice gun purchase, you will enjoy it. Good luck and happy shooting.
 
Looks great, but why the wait?

good old NY state coupon system. Judge has to sign off on my purchase before they will let me register it and the delicate genius takes his sweet ass time.
 
Ahhh. Sounds California'ish, but at least you *can* still buy. :cool:

It is walk-in walk-out here in NC w/a CCW permit...

My first centerfire handgun was a Sig P226 .40SW. It is a great gun. I recently decided I wanted something smaller and I purchased a XD-9 Sub-Compact. I was really trying to get it in a .40 but it is pretty much impossible to get one, atleast at a reasonable price. So Monday I walked out of the GS with a brand spanken new xdsc. I think I love everything about it. Now I feel like I have the best of both worlds.
