How about some pics/feedback from those of you with Springfield XD's?
I think they are terrific guns. I sure do enjoy mine. Hoping to get a few more some day, this is it for now.......

I love mine, I have not shot it much, only 3 mags worth but I prefer it over my s&w m&p pro, better feel, more accurate, and eaiser to take apart.

I've had my XD-45C for over a year now, after the first day at the range I sent her back to Springfield Arms for their combat action trigger job, along with some Big Dot night sights. Although I would not recommend the big dots for target shooting, “I was going for quick target acquisition, my CCW weapon", the trigger job was worth every penny!!!!!!

How is any gun easier to take apart than a Smith M&P?

you dont have to stick your finger in the chamber to pull down the disconnect, when you have short, fat fingers this is a pia. you dont even have to pull the trigger like the glock, just pull the slide back, spin the lever and the slide comes off. the one thing I don't like about the xd is having to squeeze the grip safety to pull the slide back.
You don't have to stick your finger in the chamber of the Smith either, just pull the trigger.

I have a XD.45 Compact and a XDM 9mm. Love them both. Was a die hard 1911'er; not any more.

Glock seems to have that covered.
Im thinking about picking one of these up! Only shot the XD45 4" model and liked it well. With summer coming, Im looking at the subcompact .40 for shirt and shorts clothes!
BTW my HK P2k is the easiest gun to feildstrip IMHO.
I have put about 400 rounds through mine and i love the feel of it.

Bought a S&W M&P 9, not only did I have to jump through hoops of fire to tear it down (Not sure who said you just have to pull the trigger but that is incorrect at least for the gun I purchased last month, needed the frame tool to push down the disconnect), but it wasnt half the shooter my brand new XDM 9 is. Sold the M&P immediately. Liked it so much I went out and bought an XD45 2 days later. Great guns, wish they were made stateside, really my only complaint. Lots of holsters and other accesories available. Love the takedown, cycles like a dream. I will be getting an XD40 soon.
want easy to tear down get an old beretta 92 that has had a few thousand rounds threw it only had to pull the triger on a loaded chamber[Rant1]

Just bought an xd45 and immediately put 100 rounds down the tube with no hiccups. I love this weapon so much that I'm getting the xdm9mm for the wife to use. Had the trigger, Slide catch, Barrel, etc...polished up, which made this gun that much more awesome. I have owned numerous glock's and the xd out preforms (imo) all of them.
