Challenging, yes.
But also looks like a heck of a lot of fun.

Now add 110F heat, low energy reserves, 60lbs of gear, wounded, tired comrades, disease, chaos, stress, fear, adrenaline, and people trying their very best to kill you. I’m sure I’m missing something.
I can’t even imagine what real, prolonged, conventional combat is like.

Was that XDm .45 ACP or 9mm ?

Not an XDm. The slide isn’t tapered. It may be a Glock. My guess is 9mm. But I could be wrong.

Mr. S,
For the sake of discussion….the pistol appears to be an XDm, 4.5″. What leads me to believe it’s an XDm is the Striker Indicator Status protruding from the back of the slide.
Anyway….not a big deal. I originally asked caliber because I had thought you were the shooter in the video. Still would like to know if .45 or 9mm.

Mr. S,
At 00:35 – 00:37 in the video one can see the Striker Indicator Status protruding from the back of the slide. It is an XDm and most likely a 9.
Take care.

It may be an XD – I don’t know. It cannot be an XDm because the slide isn’t tapered.
