Anyone else seen this???

Schit - my .45 is in that range.  Wonder how they're gonna like the PRP parts that are in it, when it shows up at their factory?...

Don't know but I've heard Springfield will replace only the questionable parts, send you back any of your own parts after replacing them with stock parts again...same thing Ruger does.

Anyone sent there's in? Friend of mine did last week told me what he read they didn't have all the parts in I think I'll wait a month or two

I'm waiting mine is shooting fine not gonna carry it untill then.

Haven't sent the .45 in yet - keep meaning to call Springfield about it and find out what the exact problem is (which spring, which parts, etc.).  I'll call them next week and find out what's up.  Depending on what it is, I might have already changed it with other parts by now, and wouldn't send it in.

They just updated their FAQ on 27 Sep.

 

Here's a link to the factory Recall page:

http://www.springfieldrecall.com/

 

Here's a direct link to the FAQ on it:

http://www.springfieldrecall.com/Recall%20FAQ.asp

 

The FAQ gets update every Friday, so check it often.  From this FAQ update, here's the big news.  Basically, I'd wait, guys.

 

We understand that our voluntary safety recall has made it inconvenient for you to be without your pistol, and we sincerely apologize for that. We also understand your frustration with our lack of follow-up communication to this point and we are committing to you now that we will provide regular updates going forward.

We originally estimated a 30-day turn-around time, but it has unfortunately taken longer to develop and identify an upgrade solution. Please know that we are continuing to test potential upgrade solutions at this time and we have been doing so since we became aware of this issue. This testing is nearing completion and we will post any new updates as soon as we have identified a final upgrade solution. We will post our next update no later than Friday, October 4, and we will communicate immediately if a final solution is identified prior to that date. We wish that we could provide you with a specific return date at this time, but we are unfortunately unable to do so. Upgrades will be completed on a "first come / first served" basis.

Yesterday's update from SA - they think they have the final solution, and will test this week.  Bigger update expected next week:

    Colt 1911, hasen't been "up-dated" since 1927.  To my knowledge, has never had a recall.

    Respectfully

I wanted to buy one but not sure now but i still need a smaller summer time carry weapon (smaller than my kImber custom Tactical 2)

I've got at least 600 rnds through mine with maybe a fail to feed twice due to not seating the mag fully. I'm hoping this is a quality controll issue by making so much so fast and it only effects a few peices but untill they have a fix well never now exactly.

[98Z5V]

^^^  Ditto.  Put probably another 150 through mine to day - zero issues. 

[shepp]

Like wise

[98Z5V]

Springfield updated the recall info last Friday, 11 Oct.  They have a final solution now, and pistols will be going back to owners starting 21 Oct.  Just hit the same links above, and it'll take you to their website, with current information.

[shepp]

I've been getting emails from them for some reason they think they have my gun ?!

Just make sure they have your shipping address.

^^^  That's what I was gonna say!  <lmao>

Guy I used to work with set his in a week or so after they came out saying there was a recall, he should have it back weds

[Zebra644]

I couldn't make it through a box of ammo without a light primer strike. I sold it for what I had in it and bought a Sig 1911 officers model to replace it. Damn shame it had the problems it did, it was light, compact and damn accurate, but not reliable enough to bet my life on.

Put 50 rounds downrange today was the most accurate I could do with gloves on but it was the worst of that granted it was the first time I've ever shot with gloves!! If it was on my hip as intended I might have been warm. My hands were the issue. So I had my friend who shoots once a year shoot a Kimber carry pro and his own glock 27 and he made a center target hole at 7 yds one hole groups as he did withs the xds he's not alowed back but I'm hoping you got what you want cus this is the shyt!!

[sketch]

Old posts are funny to read hahaha!! Well I sent my xds .45 back 3/31 and was in my hands 4/4 with new 7 rnd mag and a small pistol case ( shipped without) and xds upgrade kit ( per receipt ) I'm happy! Need to test fire!

[Magwa]

I got one that wasa recall fixed and it will put all rounds in one hole if i can hold it there a great little pistol and I am seldom without it , my Kimber custom tac 2 is feeling left out...
