Excellent choice!
I had a buddy who brought a few by for me to try out, see what fit me best.
He showed up with a Sig226.,Glock 17 and 19, CZ 75, Springfield XDs in 9,40, and 45, a H&K, and I can't remember what all else.
I REALLY liked the XD in 45, but trying to keep from adding yet another caliber.
I like the new XDM in 9, just for the capacity (19+1) but they're right $$$ right now.
Will probably go with the XD in 9 as well.

Hey dave, know why the 9mm has a 19 shot mag? Because it needs it! One from a .45 equals 5 from a 9.  |

I know, "A 9mm MAY expand, but a .45 NEVER shrinks!" ;D
I think that bullets have come a LONG way, and have negated a lot of the negatives about the 9.
Or maybe I'm just saying that because I havea LOT invested in 9mm. ;D ;D
I will say that the XD45 is a GREAT pistol, and fits me perfectly, and if I wasn't trying to minimize/consolidate ammo/components I'd be all over one.
