My local Bass Pro has the Springfield Armory XD Package (pistol, three clips, belt slide holster, lock) in 9mm or .40 cal on sale for $449.88 ($50 off their normal price at BP). This seems like a good price based upon what I've found on GunBroker.com(?).
How does that compare to new XD prices others are seeing?
Also, any thoughts on the XD itself? I'm considering it for both personal defense and a short range open sights critter gun.
