Thank you for the great info and advice! I'm soakin all this up and will be "pulling the trigger" on my new gun in the not too distant future. Please keep the info coming..... The stronger the opinion, the better!

Here is a topic that I'm sure will draw a deep and wide range of opinions: I am looking to make a purchase of a 5th handgun. I currently have my CHL and carry an XD-S .45 Single Stack or a S&W Bodyguard 380 (depending on my attire). I also have a Colt 1911 Series 70 9mm Gov Model, and a Ruger New Model .22 Revolver. Obviously, the Colt and Ruger are the most accurate... But, I would hate to run hundreds of rounds through the Colt and the .22 isn't very much fun to shoot (it's mostly my daughters gun when we go to the range.)

All that being said, I *think* I want to get a .40. I know that when shooting in a competition it is probably not a good choice, but I mostly want to compete on a friendly level with friends out on the ranch. (knock down 6 steel targets while being timed). So, I'm looking for advice on a particular model of a .40 that would be fun, smooth, accurate and durable. Recommendations based on experience with several types of guns would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you for your time! Be safe and have a plan!
