Yeah, the grip does look different from a glock, actually, looks like a USP grip...... Now, I've never held or shot the XD, so it would be interesting to see how that pans outs. I can say though, the glock sits in my hand very well, and has great balance and even better natural pointing for instinctive shooting. The USP takes a bit more getting used to, the slide seems a bit heavy than the frame and, for me at least, is a bit more awkward. However, the sights do fall into place nicely and when gotten used to, feels, for lack of a better term, more aggressive. As i said earlier, would like to see/feel how the grip and slide combo works out. Still a fan of the 1911, though...

I like the glock too. The G21's grip is a little to fat for my grip but the .45 GAP glock is supposed to be only slightly larger than the G17. Hard to find though. I heard the glock can shoot underwater at depths up to 20 metres. Thats pretty cool but doesnt do many people much good except for maybe clearance divers or frogmen.
Can a Canadian soldier in a combat zone or peacekeeping deployment carry a sidearm of his choice?

Glocks are remarkably engineered and reliable weapons. I've heard the same about the underwater thing, also about freezing them for a couple weeks, then chipping the ice off them and they still operate, there's a few stories circulating on their performance. As to bringing you're own sidearm, I am very confident the answer is no. Perhaps some individuals more educated on that subject could further elaborate. I heard of American soldiers while it Vietnam being able to, but I highly doubt that's the case today.
