I love the XDM. I've got several pistols that hurt my wallet a lot more but none outshoot the XDM or come with the same amount of goodies. Oddly the only one that comes close is the CZ75B, which is several hundred dollars cheaper.So is the Walther PPQ...XDM is obviously overpriced IMO
If a shooter asks me about which gun is the best for relatively low money, the CZ75B wins. If the same shooter asks me what I think performs the best in the $700 range, the XDM gets the nod every time. Great features, great gun, impressive quality, and awesome accuracy.
The XDM is an excellent pistol and makes the Beretta 92 look terrible in competitions. Everyone knows that the XDM's trigger could use some work to truly be called a "match grade" pistol but the Beretta 92 needs much more.
