Hahahahahaha! I know exactly what you mean! When I first got into this, and after I had bought my XDm .45, but before I took my course...whew, I used to put on my holster, late at night, put my .45 in it, and then sit around reading Ayoob's seminal manual, or one of Chris Bird's inspiring tomes. (Is it legal to use that many commas in one sentence?) I felt a little mischevious and daring in doing so. My how times have changed!
