Updating the Springfield Armory XD with Springer Precision Parts

[@btzemat210]

I love Springfield guns because they shoot everything you put in them. Your XD setup is awesome 👍🏼

[@yrsued]

Thanks, all these Springer Precision products are great to make a great pistol even better!!

[@floridaman904jax3]

What do you mean by everything? I thought it only shots 9mm bullets.

I just changed the sights on my XD9. I bought a cheap pusher off of Amazon after trying a hammer and punch. I couldn't get the front to budge with the hammer and punch.

[@yrsued]

LOL, I'm not laughing at you, but laughing with you!! That is a knows issue with XD's and M&P's!! Them sights are TIGHT!! I used a MGW Pro Sight Pusher, it is NOT cheap, but I use it a lot!! You can't use a cheap pusher for these!! Remember, XD Sights push to the Left, when you're looking at the slide from behind!!

[@mikelarue7750]

​@yrsued I was able to use a cheap sight pusher to get them changed out. Yes, I went from right to left to remove and left to right to install. When I was pounding on the front sight I went from both directions and it didn't budge. What is your trigger pull on your XD with your replacement parts? I started looking into new parts just recently. Wondering what kind of trigger pull I can get with upgrades.

[@yrsued]

@@mikelarue7750 At least you got them to work I don't want to post my Trigger Pull, but it is too low for EDC@@. I might send it back to bring it up to 5 Lbs, so, it's MUCH less than 5 Lbs You can send your pistol to Springer and they can Custom Install your Kit to your specs!!

Thanks, I would suggest you send the pistol to Springer, they will do a Killer job to it!! They will also do it really quickly for you!!

[@rik4369]

I love this pistol and tried to find one around here but had to settle for the XM 3.8 OSP .45 acp Compact after I pulled my Sig 320 off .45 off layaway. I really wanted the Modular concept but finding a .45 acp Modular is harder than finding a Patriot in Washington , DC. This pushed me towards Springfield Arms and after putting a few ranges through it yesterday, I am pleased. Really enjoy your pistol and that style of EXD. I really wanted the 4inch but that 3.8 is more in line with my Glock 30S that I am carrying now. Love those colors and the fact that you did some of your work. I thought the sites would need replacing but after yesterday, I see no need to change them. Great Video

Can you do this with the CA complaint version?

[@yrsued]

I wish I could tell you, I haven't lived in Kommiefornia for almost 40 years, I no longer know the laws there!!

[@CleverCheetah]

I recommend you switch out the striker retainer pin immediately. Their factory pins are so weak that you shouldnt dry fire them unless stripping. Now I dry fire all the time and the pin is tough as nails.

[@yrsued]

It was replaced when this work was done

[@yrsued]

[@bloodruststaples]

I dunno why the XD gets so much crap. My .45 is smooth as butter, accurate enough, and eats everything. My only gripes are the gross trigger and the fact that it feels really off balance as it runs low on ammo due to the frame.

[@yrsued]

There are solutions for the Trigger, like the Springer Kit I have on mine!

[@ClickClack_Bam]

The Springfield XD-40 is by far the best handgun I've ever fired. The trigger is incredible! Way better than Glocks trigger! The gun is highly accurate. I work in the law enforcement field & we qualify twice yearly. Generally some of us bring our own firearms to shoot afterwards. I still haven't found a better handgun than the Springfield XD-40.

In '06, I sent my XD40 Service to Springer Precision for a Grip Chop. They did a good job and I used it for many years as my main CC weapon. Allowing me to use the sub-compact magazines. BUT, I'll never use them again- because they added a notch the size of my thumbnail to the forestrap of the grip. I didn't ask for it, and I damn sure didn't want it! It looked really stupid with those shiny magazines, and it forced me to add a grip sleeve which further bulked-up the grip . Springer Precision - Never again.
