Friday Gun Porn: The Springfield Armory XDm in .40sw

Behold this weeks Centerfold, This is the newest addition to my stable. The Springfield Armory XDm in .40sw mated with a Streamlight TLR2 tactical Laser/Flashlight. It is now my home defense gun it resides in the hand gun safe next to my bed.


View from the right side with the slide closed and the laser attached.


A close up of the TLR2 which is a tactical laser and flashlight for you nonshooters it puts out the red dot laser sight and a very bright beam of light. These things are great once aligned with the gun the laser sight allows you to hit where ever you put the red dot and having the flashlight on the gun frees up your other hand. So hitting a head shot on someone wearing body armor becomes much easier.

That fact also places this gun high on the Zombie Repellent list.

The only real issue I have had with this gun is trying to find a holster that allows you to keep the TLR2 attached but I finally found one it is a tactical holster ie built to Military/Law enforcement specs I have to get off my ass and actually order it.

So there you go this weeks addition of Gun Porn

I think I am really going to like this serial post the scary/wonderful part is I can go a month or two before I have to use a gun that isn't mine ;)
