Want to shoot XDS to see if worth buying, despite recall
I'm enthusiastic about all I've read and seen about the SA XDS pistols. I want to shoot the .45 and 9mm to see if i would be comfortable with either. Does anyone know of ranges renting either? I'm in Harrisburg area. I know they are on recall, and don't know if that precludes ranges from renting them, if they already had them for rental shooting.

I do not know of any in particular, but any range that is still renting them without the upgrade is leaving themselves open for lawsuits if anything were to happen.

Re: Want to shoot XDS to see if worth buying, despite recall
Ditto, I'd doubt anybody has these for rent until they are fixed and I have not heard of anyone getting their repaired guns back yet.
I would not be in a big rush to buy one. I've shot hundreds of rounds through them. They have flaws which I do not know if the recall will fix. There are plenty of other reliable guns out there that work already.
Especially if you are on a tight budget I would try to shoot one first. I find them top heavy but OK shooters. If I was giving it a review, I'd say thumbs down on buying one.
If Springfield goes back to the drawing board there is some potential there, but I will not be trusting my life to one.
