shepp Posted December 7, 2012 Author Report Share Posted December 7, 2012 Well with how much I like my xd40 and watching some YouTube and what you guys have to say I think when I get my bonus I'm gonna go to the gun shop and play lets make a deal. They've got the XDS in stock and the dpms ar 15 I want along with a used 870 with a short barrel for pretty cheap cuz the stock is cashed ( I wanna do a tactical build). Nothing like spending money before you got it lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had a buddy who was built like a bear...shoulder width all the way down, big guy. When I went off to bootcamp he got into bicycle racing.Next time I saw him he was a little V-shaped from the front but not much...turn him sideways and I started calling him Wafer Boy. <laughs>Jon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gunjunkie Posted December 14, 2012 Report Share Posted December 14, 2012 I've had my XDs for about three months now and it continues to impress me. Not a single hiccup and recoil is fairly light. Trigger feels good compared to other double actions. It's actually a fun plinker and a beer can slayer even out to 30 yards. It's hard to beat a little pistol with a big ol hole.

planeflyer21 Posted December 14, 2012 Report Share Posted December 14, 2012 I've had my XDs for about three months now and it continues to impress me. Not a single hiccup and recoil is fairly light. Trigger feels good compared to other double actions. It's actually a fun plinker and a beer can slayer even out to 30 yards. It's hard to beat a little pistol with a big ol hole.All XD types are fired with the striker being released from a fully-cocked position. The action of the trigger disengages the striker-block safety, before releasing the sear/striker set. Some argue that this is single-action, as no hammer is involved.The Glocks, M&Ps, Kahr, a few others have that odd half-cocked striker system where the trigger completes the cocking cycle and releases the striker. Not a true double-action.On our 5.25 XD-m I installed a Powder River Precision trigger kit, leaving the trigger spring stock but using all other components with the kit. The striker releases now at 4-4.5#s of pressure, with almost zero takeup and the overtravel controlled by a stop, which PRP molds into the rear of the trigger. No worry of a screw loosening and making the pistol not function.A few snooty competition shooters have tried the trigger, stating it compares favorably to higher-end Kimber or Springfield Armory 1911s.Twelve thumbs up!Jon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
