Springfield Armory XDS

Postby deltadukman » Thu Nov 08, 2012 10:32 am

Anyone have any experience with this pistol? Looks like a nice pistol, but .45acp in a small frame makes me leary. Im looking for a ccw weapon.

Ive been looking at it, right now I carry a Ruger LCP, wanting a little bigger BANG. I have a Glock model 22 but its to bulky to carry daily

They are good guns. Don't be easy with it chambering a round, it takes some force from what my buddy said who has one. They are really accurate as well. You should like it! Order a Crossbreed mini tuck for it and a good belt!

I plan on ordering a cross breed. Was at Vans asking to see one, they didnt have any but checked on an order that had just arrived and they got one and it hadnt been entered into the computer yet. I like it for carry and a bedside/truck gun with the 7+1 ext mag. Lots of boom in a small package. Fits well.

The two loudest sounds in the world are a BANG when you expect a CLICK and a CLICK when you expect a BANG.

love my XD 45 , the only thing I don't like is that sumabitch will blow your eardrums out your head if not using earplugs!

I have one and have shot a few clips through it..I like the gun. It has not had any malfunctions. If you are around my neck of the woods you are welcome to shoot it.
