Unless you spend an extra $150.00 and get Springfield's, 'custom combat trigger' I cannot understand how anyone can say that the XD has a better trigger than a Glock? That certainly hasn't been my experience.
As far as better grip angle or balance on an XD goes, well, maybe it's me; but, the XD is easily the most top heavy pistol I've ever used; and, my scores usually go all to Hell whenever I put down my low bore axis G-21, and try to do the same kind of fast and accurate shooting with an XD. My aim is always off and that trigger reset isn't bad - It's horrible!
'Rugged' has got me, kind 'a, puzzled too? I don't regard plastic slide rails as rugged; and, there are just so many moving parts on an XD. I want a pistol I'm able to easily keep in service; not one that forces me to marry the factory the moment I buy their product.
But, hey, if an XD is your pistol then it's your pistol. It's just not mine; and, I certainly wouldn't want to have to fight for my life while standing behind one, either!
