What kind of parts are you looking for? Pistol Gear has springs, pins, and other odds and ends...

i'm talkin guide rods and firing pins and springs and triggers things like that. kind of like the spare parts kit boxes for glocks

I ordered spare pins, ejectors, springs, etc through PistolGear.com.
They have a shoppable-clickable schematic that is pretty nice.

At this time I simply do not have access to the parts, I would say PistolGear is the way to go ~ the way it sounds their customers have nothing but good to say about them

Take Care

Parts availability per Springfield Armory


Some time ago I sent S.A. a email asking what the policy on selling parts was, at that time I shared S.A.'s response with all here. Some time has passed and I am sure their policy has changed as to what they do and do not sell to us, the end user.
Last week I decided it was time to ask them again so I could post it here for all to see.
Follows is my (tec) email to them, and their response back to me.

Greetings,

I own a XD 45acp and love it. I don't shoot it enough, but I still love
it.
I am a frequent visitor to the XD talk forum with the forum name of tec
and try to help some of the members who are new to the XD line. I
recently ran across a new member who asked some question's that I did
not have the right answer's for.

The question's are :
1.)What parts are available for purchase that we the end user can
install?
2.) Will this policy soon be emulating the parts policy of other
manufacturer's where parts are more available?


I hate to mention to you that this is one of the biggest problems with
the XD line as far as many of the owners are concerned. I look forward
to your response to help us on the forum have a clear understanding of what is available for us to install and what is to be installed only by your
shop.

Thanks in advance for your timely response.

Timothy,
I have included a pdf of the parts that we have for sale. The
highlighted parts are not for sale, except for the striker and striker
dampening spring. This changed back in June of this year.
Our parts policy is ever evolving. It is possible that at some point we
could begin to offer more parts for sale. As of now, there are no other
new ones on the horizon. I apologize for this inconvenience. I
understand this problem, and I hope that it will not negatively affect
your view on a very fine pistol and a company who will do whatever it
takes to ensure your firearm continues to function flawlessly. Again, I
apologize for the inconvenience. Please let me know if there is
anything else that I can do for you. Thank you.

With Best Regards,
Terry Bowers
