XD Torture test

[Just One Shot]

You'll notice alot of references to Glock. I find it interesting with the writer stating that the XD trigger is better than the Glock especially with all those who have commented in other threads about the Glocks superior trigger. This has always baffled me since all 3 of my XD's have excellent triggers.

I think the XD trigger is better than the Glock trigger by a good margin. The only thing is the Glock trigger has a shorter reset. Other than that, I highly favor the XD. My reliability with Glock and XD have both been spotless so I can't compare there. I don't know how I feel about torture tests.

I have to respectfully disagree with ya. I think they both stink, but out of the box the GLOCK stinks less (and by a slim margin at that). Neither gun has a trigger that I like, but more "triggers that you get used to".

The XDm is a step in the right direction, but they need to do more of whatever it is they started doing on that gun.

Now, with some springs and a connector, the GLOCK gets a fairly passable trigger. I wouldn't carry it like that (2 pounds, no reset, etc) but it sure makes for a nice USPSA Limited gun...<g>

I have 2 XD's and both have triggers smooth like butter.

You must be referring to some older model because all the newer ones I have owned are just fine and they only get better with use.

Wow, excellent testimonial. I guess I bought well!

Still, will there ever be an XD45T-M???

never bought one because every time i want to the trigger turns me off, they never match up to glock triggers

Wow, finally I can finally point the Super-Glock fans to something showing that there is something as durable out there as a Glock. I can't stand the way a Glock fits me (or lack of fitting me whatsoever) or how hideous it is, or how, as the Glock fan who bashed Smith & Wesson for having to take "two tries" to get a gun right (the Sigma) was informed, that it took Glock 3 tries to get to the point they are now. The people I shoot with all own XD's, and I love shooting them. Nice to know these things are this durable.
