Xd40, thoughts?

Looking at one local, any opinions on em? Friend had a xd45 and liked it so hoping the 40 is just as good.

I didn't care for how long the trigger reset was on my friends XD45. But it's been a few year since I shot one. Maybe they changed that.

A .40 will have more snap (different recoil) then the .45 if your looking for something tamer go with 9mm.

Not all concerned with that. Just don't want .45 cause of price and single stack capacity.

Its just for a range gun and winter hobby.

For a range toy buy a 9 I'm a m&p guy but I won't go into that. Not like you're asking about a high point.

Its a used gun sitting on the shelf, so price wise, it fits my budget. If that changes anything

I have both XD ,XDM40s full size.. XDM I seam to be more accurate with. Like both of them

. There are drop in triger upgrades thatbtake care of slop and trigger pull

I've shot both the XD40 and the XDm40.... I was a bit more accurate with the XD but the XDm was more comfortable in my hands (better ergonomics). Both are great guns imho

Like others have said, the trigger pull is really the only negative I can think of. If the price is right go for it.

Consignment sale asking $400 for the dark earth xd40, mags, case, and whatever springfield gives with new gun.

Seems like a pretty good price to me. :thumb:

New pushes 600 or more pending location

good price and good gun. I have an XD and I've done quite a bit to it. Didn't like the amount of pre-travel it had so I installed a Powder River Precision trigger kit and a few parts. Made a huge difference and its a blast to shoot. But for plinking at the range I prefer 9mm over .40 any day. Just my preference though.

I was looking at PRP trigger stuff for both mine... Worth time and money putting them in?

Definitely. The trigger is light, crisp, little pre-travel, zero over-travel, and a quick reset. I shoot a lot better with it.

I Also have an xd40 with ported barrel and slide. and i'm quite happy with mine. probably have almost 2500 rnds through it and not a single glitch

Update, the xd40 sold before I could grab it, so ordered a new PPX in .40

Slight risk but it was cheap enough so we shall see.
