Default Springfield XD KABOOM!!! FACTORY AMMO?

Dang, you XD guys always mentioned how that super supported chamber is one thing the Glock lacks.

...Both safties still work, but that's about it.

In fairness I asked him if he is using reloads and he swore up and down it was Winchester white box, I have my doubts.

And no I still don't like XD's at all.

It happens even with factory ammo, and properly designed guns.

Crap happens, and the only thing you can hope for is not to get hurt.

Me too, and I'm waiting for his response. It will add even more insult to the injury if it's a sissy little 9mm...

I've seen a 9mm XD KB from a double charge of Titegroup.

That is EXACTLY what it looks like. If the chamber wasn't supported it would be worse.

just kidding, go to www.corral.net/forums and click the lounge. You shouldn't have a problem finding the thread.

Dang, the GLOCK kaboom threads go 5 pages in an hour, the XD KABOOM thread has all these views and no replies. ODD.

Probably because those of us who own and like our XDs know that anything mechanical can fail and are willing to accept the possibility.

perhaps...

or perhaps it's because those of us who have chosen glock over XD feel completely secure in our choice...and so we don't feel a need to launch a "see i told you XDs suck" attack any time one KBs. (and, as a result of the lack of misinformed attacking posts, there is no need for any XD owners to make rebuttal posts either...thus, there are few posts in this thread.)

hehe.
