[pmpdoutexpo]

[f4t9r]

I love these questions
I would recommend a SIG P220
or one of the two you listed to pick from


other than that which ever fits you the best

 

[donkee]

I would recommend the FN/Browning Hi-Power or the CZ75....

Oops, I guess they wern't an option, sorry.....

 

[Ala Dan]

+1 for the SIG P220~!

 

[GLOCK19XDSC]

XD

 

[grimjaw]

Of those two, I'd go with the SA XD, but I'd rather have it in 9x19.

jmm

 

[gudel]

these pistols are so inexpensive, buy both!

 

[Rinspeed]

By far the Springfield XD.

 

[GoBrush]

Sig 239 in 40S&W

If not the XD in 40

 

[browningguy]

Of the two you listed I'd go with the Springfield only because I've actually shot one and it seemed reasonably ergonomic, reasonably accurate and reliable.

Personally I'm a High Power fan, a pair of 40's for carrying, an Inglis with shoulder stock just because I can, and a Competition model for paper punching.

I recently picked up a CZ 40B (out of production now) and have to say I'm pretty impressed with it so far, double action, reasonably good trigger, and under $300. The CZ 75's are also excellent proven pistols for about the price you are looking at, and you can carry cocked and locked, the way Mr. Browning intended.

 

[Pietro Beretta]

XD40.

 

[TexAg]

XD, I hear the Smith has an atrocious trigger pull.

 

[U.S.SFC_RET]

Sig P220!

Go to a range that rents out guns. Try both. Buy the one you shoot best with. If you can't do that, buy the one that feels best in your hand.

 

[ddj8052]

1911. This should be an ansewer to any of these which gun should I pick threads.

On a more serious note, I think I would have to go with the XD. Although I really do not llike either gun. Out of the two I think the XD is probably better built. In this price range I would look at the 24/7. Just my .02

 

[10-Ring]

I'm not a fan of the 40 so it's kind of a tough decision for me. As 40's go, I'd go w/ the Beretta 96. IMO, smoothest most accurate 40 you can get your hands on. If I had to choose from your options, I'd go w/ the XD

 

[Black Majik]

On the list: XD40

Off the List: SIG P226 .40

 

[Brian41]

ive recently deliberated that same question... the deciding factor for me was the fact that comp-tac does not make a holster for the sigma, but they do for the XD.... so i'm planning on going with the XD

 

[ReadyontheRight]

Springfield.

 

[cobb]

I have 2 XD's, go with the XD.
