Re: I made a boo boo with my gun purchase.

Looks like soon enough you'll be able to use those lil teeny numbers themselves - the 7s, 8s and 9s - as aiming points; the X-ring is getting far too easy for ya :tiphat: ;-)
This was concentrating pretty hard... I have the dang habit of pulling to the left when shooting.

I love the longer sight line...it is going to be a better setup for me as a right handed but left eye dominant shooter. :cheers2:
Thanks for meeting me out in the middle of nowhere sir, I am extremely happy with the 3.3. Took it to the range today and it performed like a champ... 400 rounds and not a single problem. The slide failed to lock back a couple times but that was due to me resting my thumb on the slide lock, so all in all the gun performed perfectly. I am 100% happy with it.

This was 10 shots from 5 yards, 30 from 7 yards and the final 10 from 10 yards. You can tell the 10 yard ones as they are the worst lol. All in all this gun is more accurate than I am so it is awesome!

Re: I made a boo boo with my gun purchase.

Thanks for the info peeps! I was worried about the weight but after looking at the specs there is only a couple ounces between them. What I'm finding difficult is finding a holster since most I see are made for the 3.3. I like the single clip IWB either slim kydex or some tough fabric. Any hints?

I made a boo boo with my gun purchase.

So Tuesday I bought a brand new XDS 9mm from Cabela's. In all the excitement that someone actually had this one in stock I completely forgot to check if it was the 4in or 3.3in. I wanted the 3.3 but without looking bought the 4in. CRUD!
If I find a 3.3 slide and barrel would those fit on the frame just fine? I am also taking this will be quite expensive but I figured I would ask just in case.

The only thing I can think of is trading with someone who has a 3.3 but chances are low and if course there is a no return policy on firearms. Kinda disappointed in myself since I let this happen but I saw a brand new XDS and got all excited.

If anyone here prefferes the 4in model over their 3.3 I am willing to trade as much as a long shot that it.
