XDS NON issues
Hi Folks,
I had my XD-s out for its break in run at Deb’s yesterday. I put about 160 rounds through it. Mostly S&B 230 grain FMJ, a few Herters same, and a half dozen hand loads of mine.
Gun ran flawlessly. With factory ammo, it has more recoil than my 1911, but I more than expected it. There is no issues with the recoil, the gun was very easy to control. It took me a while to learn where to hold on the target, but as I progressed at 8 yards, the groups tightened up. At the end at 17yds I was able to put them in the black. The hand loads really were much easier to control (4.9 to 5.2 universal Ranier 230 CJ).
If I had any issues at all, it would be with the trigger. It seems to pull a tad hard, and wears into my finger. I am hoping it breaks in and smooths itself out.
Other than that it is sweet. The amazing thing is, it is just slightly bigger than my PM9. A pocket .45??
Anyone have suggestions on holsters, etc?
The small issue:Has anyone more than field stripped the XDS? Mine has a ton of oil in it, that I can not swab out. Weep-age by the trigger, all around the striker, etc. Any suggestions on further take down?
Thanks
