Yeah, I'm not too concerned about carrying at this point. Once I develop some skill, that might change. Right now it seems like it would be hazardous for me to be carrying since I don't feel proficient enough. I am planning on taking some courses when I can find them, as I'm sure it wont hurt and they really don't appear to cost that much.
As far as the laws go, I've browsed to see what I can and can't do so far. It looks like I'm actually only allowed to transport the gun in a car or on my person from the store I purchased it to my residence and from my residence to a repair facility. Those are the only exceptions to the not transporting without a license to carry. It seems that the range is out until my license gets delivered. However, I have talked to a few friends in the area who are licensed and I could probably convince one of them to pick me up and go to the range (he's actually a cop and could probably offer at least a few pointers as well). Also, my next two weekends are kinda chewed up with plans, so I wont have much time anyway.
I have been browsing xdtalk here and there. Haven't signed up yet, but I don't have any major questions or comments, so I'm cool with just lurking for now.
I did get a chance to handle the XDM-45 today. Obviously the shop didn't have any used that they would allow to be fired, so that wasn't an option. I'm sure I'll get hooked and have to fight the urge to purchase various other firearms. But for now, I'm content on just trying to come as close to mastering this one weapon.
