That XD M is a very nice pistol. I havea 4"XD 40, and am tempted to trade up to the XD M. My XD is a very nice shooter, but it really gives me an uneasyfeeling every time I strip it for cleaning. With mine I have to pull the trigger to remove the slide. That is only one of the many improvements that SA made with the XD M.

The XDm was just awarded the American Rifleman 2009 Golden Bullseye Award for Handgun of the year.
How it beat out the H&K I don't know.
That is next to buy on the list after I get either a .223 or .204
I love my XDm though and it loves my reloads so I shoot cheap.
