If you would shoot at someone for throwing something at you, you don't need to own a gun. Unless they are throwing knives or something. lol

lol right. somebody would literally have to walk up to my car, pull a gun on me, get my door open and try to pull me out of my car before i draw and fire. anything less than that i would just drive away.

Im not in a hurry to kill anyone either, but im also not in a hurry to be killed. If someone approaches me in a threatening manner and decides they want to make a move for a weapon then I am gunna do what I have to do to ensure I return home to my wife that night.

Like the old saying goes, rather be judged by 12 than carried by 6......

But to be on topic, I like the TLR-2. Been eying one they have down at the px on base, thinking about grabing it as a bday present to myself lol.

lol that my sig on xdtalk.

how much do they want for it? i picked mine up for a hair over 200. i have seen places ask as much as 400 for one. i say if you find a good priced one then snag it, it's a great tool for almost any situation and the laser can be zeroed quite easily. the light is very bright and will most definitely disorient a person at night. but best of all you can attach it, clamp it down many times over and it retains the zero. i give it

Army, Ft Hood.

I met you one time at the Kemah meet, I had the silver 02 Z28 with the cam, loud exhaust, SS spoiler and black berger panel. I talked to you and a couple of your buddies for a while, guy with a white TA if I remember correctly.

Looks great, I dont like the way grip tape looks on the XD. But it looks really nice on the XDM.

I wanted an XDM .40 with the OD green lower, but I am a horrible impulse buyer. I went to the local gun shop and got a great deal on my XD .40 so I pulled the trigger on it instead of waiting.

I have no regrets though, it has been awesome so far.
