braved the eleven degree Mn temps today and took my new/used springer tactical XD to the range.

the gun must have been a case of lost acuracy do to being ridiculously dirty.

took me a while to get her all cleaned out.

im guessing whoever owned it before me either shot it a lot or carried it a lot but never if ever cleaned it.

shoots good though put 50 rounds of mag tec 180 grn through it.

no malfunctions.

fired 20 rounds slow fire.

10 douple taps

and 20 rapid fire.

no hicups, the brass looks clean with no dents or dings.

target was at 25 yards. slow fire grouped 4 inches, rapid fire grouped 10-12 with a fwe rounds outside that (it was freezing ya know)

I like this gun a lot, its almost the same size as my 1911 and carries about the same. the extended trigger guard is good for shooting with gloves on and the ambi mag release is a big seller for me as my thumb is too short to reach most releases, i trip the release with my trigger finger on the XD which keeps the the booger hook of the bang switch during reloads, a plus.
 
You are lucky you found one of the 5 inch XDs. I have been looking high and low and have been unable to locate a 9mm tactical. I have a XD40 service model that I really like.
 
lucky? yeah, ivev been told its hard to find the tacticals for whatever reason.

even luckier it came with 3 mags and a case with 5% off the gun and 10% off the holster.
 
Aparently you live in the wrong state for them. I had my choice of Black or Green in all sizes and calibers. Picked up a black tactical 9. Love it. Will have my raillight in a few days.
 
the address isn't working,but if you type in pdhsc you'll find it.they're in Raleigh NC.
