Springfield Armory XD-S. Is Thin Still In?

Close up look at Springfield Armory’s original XD-S.
I did not realize how thin this gun was.
What do you think about the XD-S?
Or Springfield in general?
Thanks a for watching!!

When it first came out, Springfield had a self recall on that pistol. It was for a safety issue that mine didn't experience. I sent mine back and it returned with an extra extended mag and a new pin installed. You can see it near the grip safety. Its still my favorite nail driver.

Nice video on a forgotten about line of guns. I have the mod 2 version of this. I like the thinness, but it seems heavy for the size of the gun. That helps with recoil but hurts with carry for me. Mod 2 doesn’t have replaceable back straps which is kind of a bummer though.

Nice gun, my first gun I ever bought legally 😎 was an XD tactical with 5" barrel. This is the first time I've seen the S Series. I'm loving it. I would also need the extended mag with my big hands.

I liked how it felt but the trigger was way too heavy and lack of aftermarket triggers ultimately made me get rid of it.
