Personal Defense - Springfield XD

[Michaeljr215]

i love midway but i mute his voice out my head when i watch midwayusa videos why i watch em idk.. larry you need to go somewhere..

[TheIZI6]

Why nobody mention who is designer?

Because it is made in Croatia. And don't forget that.

[chrismc410]

@TheIZI6 I thought Springfield bought the designs and rights to produce from Croatia.

[superhawkn]

22.lr get it done

[bigfootgunot]

pause at 1:06 and you will see that theyve ranked the 9mm about the same as the .45 acp..........FAIL!!

[Viking445]

@bigfootgunot Ya i noticed that too. But that is the "flying ash tray" 230 grain bullet.

Thank god I use 185 grain +P .45acp!!

[smartguy104]

@bigfootgunot I think there going buy muzzle energy alone in there ranking system. It is true 9mm+p 124 grain loads hit harder then 230 grain standard pressure 45 loads at muzzle but if you jump out to 50 yards the 9mm loses quite a bit of velocity and energy while the heavier bullet doesn't. A 230 grain 45 acp hit with about 325-350 ft lbs at 50 yards. while 9mm luger nato ball loads( a little hotter then standard pressure) hit with a 290-310 ft lbs depending on barrel length.

[Berelore]

@smartguy104

Yea but this is a personal defense scale most of that happens within 10ft. if you are shooting a personal defense situation at 50 yards with a pistol something is very very wrong and you should probably be running not shooting.

[eggsandwich8885]

@Berelore Yeah, not to mention you might go to prison. It's kinda hard to claim self-defense when the assailant is 50 yards away. Lol!

[RECONDO101st]

@eggsandwich8885 not if he's armed too.

[m0uth4th3war]

he's like a well armed mr. rogers.

[granputon01]

Larry you are nicer than Mr. Rogers LOL !!!

[samthecat07]

he could sell Chevy's to Paul Harvey, underwear at a nudist camp and socks to Jimmy Buffet I'll bet..

[mmabagain]

With that friendly smile and pleasant voice, he could probably sell razor blades as food.

[bamnmetal]

cheeeeeese



[thadea]

3 out of 6? shooter is inaccurate

[thadea]

he misses several shots because he was fanticizing about the gun

[thadea]

these reviews almost seem to be irrational 

[ThePrankDudes]

when i saw XD on the title i thought it was that face people do to show laughing but its the name of the gun :/

[GameBuilder15]

At first I thought I saw xD in the title.

[Jdwat702]

Yeahhhhhhhh!!! Larry!!!!

[rockstarr469]

No sir Larry, that's NOT the way it is

[mark16443]

how did it take him more time to hit the target with this than with the compact and how did he miss? this test is flawed, also how is +p 9mm ammo more deadly than a 45 cal bullet?

[Immortal91Technique]

9mm Luger ranks higher in hitting power than .45 ACP?

Get the fuck outta here with that.

[espdemon]

@Immortal91Technique HAHAHAH!!! lol

[tonebank2000]

@Immortal91Technique thhe 45 ACP is at the top

[davefla73]

whats with all the i want you to adopt me, can you be my father, i love you comments? they are freaking me out!!

[Makingnewnamesisdumb]

Doesn't XD have a 19 round mag?

[GSSRT8]

what is the worst gun , now that i wanna see!!!!!

[FlamingLavaOwl]

@GSSRT8 look up Lorcin, that is the worst gun.

[tylerkruckman]

Love this firearm I have it in the 4" service model

[ImWatchinTheTube]

How does the 9mm 124gr JHP+P score higher than a .45 JHP?

I'm just going to assume Larry knows what he's talking about on this one.

[samstocker08]

why do you use only one hand? I understand that the first round might be one handed in a hurry, but if theyre far enough back I cant whip them with a full sized 1911 then Im sure as hell gonna be going weaver stance

[drasticallynh]

ya know you have much more time to do your videos...linger a little longer on the knock down power charts and basically....all the charts. Don't rush!

[AKSKSMAN]

These 9mm bullets are pretty light compared to what I bought a few years age. I have some Black Talon 9mm that are 147gr and would jump the stopping power up a lot compared to the bullets used here.124gr? 9mm? No thanks. I have .380 that's heavier.

[DaedalEVE]

Considered the XDm in .40, but I'm really interested in the .45 (once the State Police here add it to the approved roster).

[ProblmSolvd]

all i can say is "go XD" XD

[justsayno2islam]

I own the .40 XDm 3.8in barrel. Great weapon, accurate to 2" groupings at 25 yards. Not that i can get 2 in groupings at 25 yards but it is supposed to be that accurate. NutNFancy on your tube has a great video on the XD/XDm.

[Jordenkl]

you should chack the XDM i guess

[Gezab]

Larry, you should probably rename this video "HS2000".

[2fat2exercise]

Has a gun ever killed anyone?

[jcole60brit]

@2fat2exercise No, but bullets have.

[bgroberts27]

@2fat2exercise

No.

[diniliful]

@2fat2exercise No, they only helped the killer to do it.

[2fat2exercise]

@diniliful

Weak

[TheGrankuma]

@2fat2exercise yeah, excessive pistol whipping

[gsm1091]

@TheGrankuma mmmmmmm.... pistol whip

[ODgr33n]

Larry - can you adopt me?

[Dragon7697]

The time to first hit is a joke who picks there gun up from a table anyways lol but these vids are fun to watch keepem coming

[ronterry1076]

The time to first hit is still in my mind subjective. Say Mr. Potterfield doesn’t have a good day, or has just a mild chemical imbalance or whatever, and you can see where that test can change almost daily with the same gun. So I would call it a 'take it with a grain of salt' test...

Other than that I don't own an XD, so I won't judge it till I do :)

[bsrman36]

@ronterry1076 also the accuracy. that pistol clearly wasn't even zeroed when the video was shot.

[randomikey5678]

76.8% its close to a C+ but its a C when its to the numbers

[ECTBWHO]

: )
