Personal Defense - Springfield Armory XD Sub Compact

[1860CarolinaRebel]

Can you complete a video on a Springfield XDS when available?

[MidwayUSA]

@1860CarolinaRebel Unfortunately we don't have any plans to rate firearms as part of the Concealed Carry Personal Defense videos. Thanks for the suggestion!

Thanks for Your Business!

Hey guys check out the PRP trigger job I did on my XD-40 subcompact it is amazing, check my page out. I highly recommend it to anybody with a XD or XDm. Unbelievable how stable of a firing platform the trigger job creates.

Concealed carry draw... From the top of a wooden shooting bench.

Anyone else see any problem with this?

[thadea]

so you are more accurate with the subcompact that the regular 9? how about taking a greater number of samples to increase the accuracy of your "tests"

[drummermangle]

@hai2you2 Sorry, but your talking to an XD guy. You don't need to tell me which is better! Lol...however that doesn't disprove my original point in that, its all about what works well for YOU. There both good. For me, its all about Springfield.

[TheAlter95]

has one not on

[pblacketter24]

i like how it gets a score of 888/1000 but then at 1:25 as he's walking away, it changes to 788/1000, someone screwed up

[reeseman67]

@pblacketter24 WHOAA! Good eye, I saw it did 888, didn't see it had gotten 100 taken off at the end... WEIRD!

[rey1933]

He said "duty" xD

[SecretSpetsnaz]

which gun got 666?? Lol

[captainchill4813]

Skip to 1:18 for the real reason your watching this video.

[drummermangle]

Dont even start with the "XD vs. Glock battle here". They are BOTH excellent weapons. Pick the one that feels the most comfortable for you and that will be the "best" one!

[metaZen]

@drummermangle call me crazy.. but I like both!!!

[atk2455]

This guy is an idiot and favors certain guns the accuracy portion is depicted by how many shots you get on target in 3 seconds skip to 0:42 you count 3 rounds at 2.9 seconds not 5 he got off 5 rounds true but not in the alotted time

[SupremeAmerican]

Better than glock.

[futuresolider96]

@SupremeAmerican hell no its not

[SupremeAmerican]

@futuresolider96 Actually yes it is. And XD is shitty. What's that say about glock?

[TheAlter95]

@SupremeAmerican YEAH I HAVE ONE AN MY UNCLE HAS ON THE XD IS AN AWSOME GUN.

[nativedjd]

Did I really just see 9mm with a better score than 45acp..... that's how I know this is full of crap

[TehRamenBrotherz]

@nativedjd its not all 45 ACP its only certain loads, all 45 ACP that he rates on this are counted with highest ammo for personal defence which rank 2nd highest only to 12 gauge 00 Buck

[callmetw]

@nativedjd You saw a "+P" 9mm round with a better score than 45 ACP.

[michaeldepp85]

@callmetw there's duplicate rounds for several of the calibers so they can definitely sway the results easily the different 45acp rounds range a total of 124 points. I call shenanigans!!

[TakeDetour]

888 is one of the best I have seen. Larry must carry this himself.

[12799MaDeuce]

how the fuck does a 124 gr 9mm rate higher than the 230 gr .45 ACP??????

[Grubbernaut]

@12799MaDeuce My thoughts exactly... WTF

[TheWyrmwood]

@12799MaDeuce My thoughts slightly. Thats why the kimber scored so high was after it came to knockdown. I can only guess that the graph isnt a reference, but more of a random graphic, besides that, where's the .40? Though, I dont mind them giving the predecessor to my first handgun a great score. Midway please do an XDM, I would like your opinion on the .40 compact.

[TehRamenBrotherz]

@12799MaDeuce velocity thats why a high pressure 9mm is better and same reason why the .45 JHP+P 185 grain ranks the highest

[fredjustsucks]

These people should not ever be taken seriously EVER. Their "time to first hit" stat is stupid, because they still have the human variable, and he's picking the gun up off the table, not from a holster, like you would in real life. Again, the accuracy variable has a human variable, and as for the "knockdown power" thing, it's all about shot placement when it comes to handguns. All handguns are weak. Besides, there are way more variables than this.

[JoseCuervo2k8]

888 out of 1000 not to bad 

[DrThunder88]

The XD Sub Compact 9mm also takes a 13-round flush-fit magazine or a 16-round magazine with the grip extender (or even without one, actually). I bought both a sub compact magazine and a full size magazine from Midway for my everyday carry rig. Great gun!

[rightsman123]

@DrThunder88 does it come with a 13 round mag? I had thought it was a 10 rounder that you could add a 2 plus base plate and then put one in the chamber for thirteen.

[DrThunder88]

@rightsman123 It may have a 10-round magazine for states that require low-capacity handgun magazines, but the standard-capacity magazine holds 13 rounds. The full size, 16-round XD magazine will also fit in the subcompact with or without the grip extender sleeve. There are no plus two baseplates I'm aware of.

[Phantomrig]

I jsut wish they would do any 1911

[bjornalewulf]

Damn, don't mess with Larry when he's carrying a Springfield Armory XD Sub Compact!

[Pyromouse]

Please review the Springfield 1911 Operator, that's what I'm looking at buying.

[ECTBWHO]

: )

[impalor1979]

pretty good score...wouldnt be my first choice, im a 1911 guy, but still a great gun...
