Anyone shoot IDPA with their XD? - Page 3 - XDTalk Forums - Your HS2000/SA-XD Information Source!

9, 40, & 45 in 4" & 5" models. The 40 5" is my favorite, but the 45 is moving up now that I have worked up a nice low PF load.

There is a match at Racine this coming Saturday December 3rd.

I've been meaning to get involved in IDPA for sometime, but my work schedule always interfered with the meet days. This coming year I have no such problem. The Green Valley Club in Hallsville, MO. is where I do some shooting and is where the IDPA meets are held. It is also the home of the Chapman Academy and the Bianchi Cup.

Hmmm I have to come up and shoot with Frenchy.

I also shoot with an XD 40 in IDPA...works well enough for me.

i shoot IDPA with my XD, but i'm about to switch to Glock so i can keep the exact same setup for: carry, IDPA, and IPSC.

you should try both your XD and your glock. its not like you have too choose one gun and stick with it the rest of the year.

I shot some IDPA matches this last summer with my 9mm XD 4". I also saw a guy at a club match shooting a SC 9 using an IWB holster. I asked him about that and he said it wasn't the fastest setup for IDPA but it was his daily carry rig so it was good practice.

I don't recall what the capacity is of the SC 40, but I see no reason not to shoot it if you want to.

what division do you shoot? ESP?

the IDPA rulebook says spacificly that CDP is .45 ACP.

just wondering where they put you...

Tango Sierra · 12-01-2005, 07:45 AM

You do not have to shoot CDP just because your gun is a 45acp. If the gun itself meets the criteria it can be used in ESP or SSP.

A factory stock P220 can be use in SSP or CDP.

A factory stock USP-45 can be used in SSP if the first shot is D/A or in CDP if the gun is drawn cocked and locked.

The rule book says if you want to shoot CDP the pistol must be 45acp so I don't know if that means the XD-45 is limited to SSP only since it's 45gap and not 45acp.
