On this model I tend to agree.If you are going to go for the XD40 then I would say go new. There is a lifetime warranty for the original purchaser...
So I have went out, shot a few handguns, and decided what I like. Now for my first gun do I want to go Used or New? What should I look for in a used handgun? I am looking at an XD40 Compact right now. Should I spring out and just go brand new being a noob?
