One hell of a deal at Elmores.

I went into Elmores yesterday to look at holsters for my J-frame but unfortunately they did not have anything that was comfortable to me. So I kept looking around and wandering between the cases untill I spied a few old revolvers. While looking at them I noticed a Springfield XD-40 compact sitting on the shelf. To give a little background information, my first semi auto was an XDM 40 caliber full size. My mom's first semi auto was an XD-9C. She loves it, I love it and on those days where I wanted to carry a semi auto in a bit of deeper cover I would leave my XDM with her and borrow her XD-9C. I love that little gun and have been looking for one ever since my Mom got hers. The price tag was 375 plus tax so into layaway she went. Btw, when Mom found out I bought it her first reaction was to say good now you can stop borrowing my gun. lol

Thats a nice deal. I have seen them for 390 lately online.

I have a 4.5" .40 XDM that I carry, but it's a tag large. Good suggestion on the 9 compact. I may have to trade it in. Thanks for the post.

Sounds like a good buy to me. Also, stop borrowing your mom's gun!

Congrats! Bought my first duty weapon there and they were good to me!

why did you have to buy your own duty gun?

If you are looking for a holster for a J frame Smith, I have been really lucky with some old OWB leather ones from Brauer Brothers. They are out of business, but I found one for my I frame (mini-J-Frame from the '40's) for pretty cheap, and I love it. They look great, they're well made, and can be had cheap.

You got a very good deal on that XD and a super mom.

Some reserve divisions require you to purchase your own firearm. I know Hope, IN requires you buy the Ruger p345. Maybe this is it?
