About the Gun

The Croatian made XD pistol represents Springfield Armory's entry into the polymer-frame striker-fired pistol market. Although Springfield Armory introduced the XD in 2002, an earlier incarnation of the design known as the HS2000 had been independently imported into the US three years before. The XD model introduced many manufacturing improvements that have given the pistol a reputation for reliability and accuracy. While often compared to the GLock, the XD has a distinctly different trigger action that includes a unique 1911-style grip safety, and both a cocked status indicator and a loaded chamber indicator.

About the Cartridge

This cartridge was introduced along with the Luger semi-automatic pistol. The pistol and cartridge was first adopted by the German Navy in 1904 and then by the German Army in 1908. This cartridge has since been adopted by the military of practically every non-Communist power. It has become the most popular and widely-used handgun cartridge in the world. Performance wise, the 9 mm cartridge has somewhat more power than the .38 Special but falls well short of the .357 Magnum.

The Essential Carry Gun
By XDboy on 03 Dec 2021
The XD line of handguns imported by Springfield are rock solid. You can feel the weight of the extra reinforced components, including the fullly supported chamber and double recoil spring and steel guide rod. These guns are like the energizer bunny, they take a lickin and keep on tickin. The grip safety is a welcome second chance incase you should reach out in the middle of the night and accidentally put your finger in the trigger guard. Steel sights are standard, loaded chamber & striker indicators. Extended guide rod keeps the weapon in battery when pressed point blank. All that for around 350 bucks. You simply can not afford to pass on this one.
