I've not heard of this issue with the .45 version.

The pocket gun market seems to be having some issues

My LCP works great!

The very first time I shot my xds .45 I had the issue he described let the slide go and jammed 3/8 open. But I haven't had an issue since, figure it was an operator error

Haven't had this issue with the XDs-45 so far.  

 

I will say - if you limp-wrist it, it won't fully cycle 100% of the time.  However, if you hold it like a man, it runs like a champ.  

 

I'm definitely not saying that is the issue reported with the XDs-9, here.  That looks like an ammo issue more than anything else.

I ended up having some serious light primer strikes with mine. I hated to love that gun, but it was not 100% reliable and I sold it for what I paid for it. I bought a Sig Ultra Compact to replace it. If that XDS would have been reliable it was the perfect little carry pistol accurate and the recoil wasn't that bad.

I have my radar fixed on a 45 version I am hoping this is not common , my wife looked at the xds 9mm and the sig P938 she walked out with the sig and loves it....

Well, c'mon. Who doesn't love a Sig? In almost any flavor or caliber?

[unforgiven]

Sig = good stuff.Wouldn't mine havin another.

+1 for SIG

At least the .45s seem to be a nonissue.

 

Especially since many places now have the 7-round magazines in stock!

 

You can get them many places...all over really.

 

You can never have too many extra magazines for your carry pistol.

 

Right, Tom?  >:D

[98Z5V]

True dat!

 

I need to pick up some more 7-rounders.  Only have two right now.

I've got 4, keep on stashed in the house along with 3 for my xd40 one in my truck and two for carry

No problems here with the .45 xds I guessing 500 rnds or more
