Switched out all of my Glocks for XD's now I'm taking a beating at the range
I have traded in all of my glocks for XD's over the last few months. I shoot a friends XD9c earlier this year and loved it. Felt better in my hand than my G19 and G26 or even the G30SF. I now have the following, XD9 Service, XD9c, XD45 Compact and a XDM 5.25. Lately at the range people that I've shoot with before have ask were my Glocks are and I told them I traded them all in for XD's. Man, let the bashing start. I've heard everything from XD's have a high failure rate, don't trust your life to an XD. Before I've been a die hard Glock guy for 10 years until I shot my first XD. I have had 0 failures of any kind with any of the XD's I know own. I do miss my Glocks but that's from a collection standpoint. Maybe when the wife allows I'll get another G19 but for now I'm happy with the XD's but I'm also hoping I didn't make a mistake in drop down in reliability.

you need to tune out glock fanboy BS. I had this glocksucker try to "teach" me that glocks were the best and only choice once. 
it happens. these days glockboys start running their mouths I just ignore them.
