Breaking in the New XD

xd as in springfield armory xd.

.45acp 5" tactical.. (and now they go and introduce the new 'm' model just to piss me off!).

for anyone who doesn't know, this is the springfield armory xd:.

How would you compare the XD to a glock?
 Never owned a Glock so I couldn't say.
 The XD has a grip and a trigger safety and now Springfield has added a thumb safety as well. And now they have the new M-factor XD's, with match grade barrels.
 I'm very happy with the accuracy. Disassembly is fairly simple, but you've got to be careful with the recoil spring on the 5" models. When I took mine out for cleaning, the guide rod shot all the way across the room.
 I while back I was looking to buy a GLOCK 26. Shot it, and it did not feel good to me Then I tried the XD sub compact in 9 mm . That shot better for me. So I got the XD mainly because of the safeties. The GLOCK felted like a brick. The XD melted into my hands. The GLOCKS do have a cult following, but I still like the XD. There are more after market extras for GLOCK than XD,s.

What helped me. I borrowed a laser and put it on the picatinny rail. Then you can really see how your hand shakes. I found out that my grip was wrong. (I had a death grip on the gun) Then ask some old shooters how they do it. That is what really helped me

Congrats on the new XD! Practice dry firing. Remove mag and pull back on slide to see and feel empty chamber. Make sure ammo is in other room. Go into the other room and check gun again to make sure gun is unloaded (Yes double check). Then cock slide on your unloaded XD and aim in a safe direction then balance a quarter on the front sight, pull back on the trigger slowly until you hear click. The quarter should not fall off. Use the first pad of your finger (just under the nail) to squeeze the trigger. Do this for 15 min. You will improve. Important if you get distracted from a phone call or any kind of brake when coming back make sure gun is unloaded!! and continual to dry fire. The XD family is a striker firing gun so you can dry fire all day without damage. Safety first GH

"new light", what do you hate about the watchtower

by mattbetrayed in

i hate the "new light" bull shit they have pronounced the end of the world that many times iam so shocked they still have followers.however with "new light"you can get away with anythink.. what do you guys really hate about the watchtower society.

greenhornet

I went to a JWs house a couple of years ago. In the living room was about 10 feet of Yearly bound volumes of the watchtower and awake books from back in the 40s to the year 2004. I was waiting for everyone cause we were going out to eat. I stood up in front of the books and said out loud. "Can JWs get a trans plant operation?" I then pointed to the books in group and said "YES" then pointed to another group of books and said "NO" then yes again. Boy did I get funny looks. I think they were saying to them selves is this guy a brother?

'Paradise Earth' makes absolutely no sense!

by navytownroger in

the jw idea of 'paradise earth' seems to be full of holes.

will babies of baptized jws also be in the new system?

if not, how could the child's parents consider it 'paradise' without their children?

greenhornet

Loins or any animal can not eat straw. Animals can eat hay but never straw. There is no nutritional value to eating straw. Straw is used for bedding and building.

One quick question? Can JWs store there blood for an operation? And if they need a blood transfusion can they have there own stored blood? I know this was a big no no a while back. But I know they change there rules every 10 years or so, so thats why am asking what the rules are as of Aug. 2008? Thanks
