Yesterday I learned that I need to shoot a lot more often than what I do to keep my skills up. I also learned that S&W XD's, though popular, tend to jam quite a bit. 7 guys had them at the range yesterday and every one had multiple jams and misfires. My SIG went off without a problem every time.

he's exactly right.

The bike is HUGE, so it kind of needs it. There is a switch by your left leg. Put it in neutral then switch to reverse, then shift into first gear... it slowly rolls backward.

I learned that my mind is willing to ride...but...my abs aren't quite able yet. Another few days and I'll be back on two wheels again. :/

Well that is what didn't make sense. I've never had a problem with a Springfield but it doesn't mean that it couldn't happen, just seemed odd to me.

Me neither. Could have been ammo or mags to, both play a role in a firearms operation.
