Dang it! Frustrated Searcher

[ronaldrwl]

Why can't I search for "Springfield XP"? It says XP is to small. Is there some way to do a simple search? Please help Grand Master Know it All!

Yeah, there is a 3 or 4 letter minimum in the searches. What exactly are you looking for and I'll see if I can't help you find it.

[ronaldrwl]

This time I was looking for a Springfield XP in the for sales thread. But it seems to be a limitation I run into often. I guess there's no way around it.

I agree the minimum letter searches are a pita ... can't search for most calibers and half the model names/numbers of various guns are too short (try searching 686 or M40)

Should be done away with since it is an optional setting (other forums running vBulletin don't have this restriction)

[Irving]

I couldn't find any, sorry. Is the XP one of the full size 1911s?

[ronaldrwl]

"Gun of the year".

I'm confused. The title says "XP" but every other mention of the name (including the pictures) says XD. What's the deal?

[Troublco]

Somebody fat fingered it, I think. Looks just like my XD.

[Irving]

That's what I thought, but you'd have to have one fat ass finger to make that mistake.

Yeah, it's a typo. You're looking for an XD-45...not XP.
