How many XD owners have had thiers tweaked or modified?
I was just wondering how many of you guys and gals have modified or customized your XD's. I had the custom shop send me one moded with a trigger overtravel adjustment, custom fit factory bbl for accuracy, and a combat action job. It is the sweetest thing to shoot. In a side by side comparison with my unmodified XD40, it wins for speed and accuracy. Both have Heine slant pro straight eight sights. Anyone else tweak thiers? I need some more ideas for customizing.

I'd be interested in tinkering a bit. Any links to resources used by those who've done their own work?

I would advice against this unless your very mechanicaly inclined and understand the workings of the gun. SA will not sell you replacement parts and if you send it in, will most likely charge you to replace any parts that have been modified and your warranty may be void.

I agree the parts you have to modify are not sold.
