Well, after pestering Scott for quite some time over the course of the summer, and having spent a good bit of time trying to decide between CC and Springer Precision, I finally sent my XD9 away this morning for one of Scotts 4# trigger jobs.

The package should arrive tommorrow, and Im hoping to have it back by the end of the week (based upon other members quotes of incredibly fast turnaround times.)

Ill be sure to share my thoughts as soon as I get it back!

I had the same work done for both of my XDs. I'm debating whether I should send my new Kimber in for work, but it's already nice out of the box.

Yeah, Scott's pretty damn fast. The XD becomes even better afterwards.

Sent mine on a Thursday it was back in my hands on Tuesday, fast is an understatement.

R.E.Lee · 08-22-2006, 04:16 PM

Well, it arrived at 9:22am this morning @ Springer Precision, and was picked up at 12:45PM today for delivery back to me. Its scheduled to arrive at 3pm tommorrow.

Talk about FAST!!!!

That is silly fast. Or it must be his day off.

how much is shipping or the total price including shipping

Actully you got lucky

I had some guns ready to go test fire and ship. Yours came early enough that I did it up, hit the range and then FedEx. The guns that came in later in the day are going out after testing this am.

I hate having work setting around when you could be enjoying it.

Thought I would update this thread with some thoughts. Although I havent yet fired it with the new 4# trigger job, the dry-firing I have done has been pretty enjoyable.

When I sent it in, I was expecting a WORLD of difference, as everyone seems to say the trigger job is just about heaven on an XD. Well, initially after receiving it I thought, "Oh, this is nice...but not life-altering". The pull requires slightly less effort (2# less), and is slightly smoother..but the most noticeable part is the reduction in pre-travel and over-travel. One thing that is noticeably different, is there is less indication of when the trigger will fire the gun...its probably a result of the smoother action and reduction in pre-travel, but the point of engagement is less clear...more of a gray area now as opposed to the factory black and white.

I would certainly recommend Scott and his services to other forum members, but would suggest you really get to know your XD prior to sending it in for work. I had ~1k rounds through mine before I sent it off, and I would say that should be the bare minimum, as to truly appreciate Scott's work, you need to have a feel for where the stock XD falls short.

The thing live fire will bring out is the reset

For shooting that requires follow-up shots this is what really brings out the benefits of fixing the trigger.

The lighter triggers always get bigger smiles, but the 4# is very functional. My girlfriend uses a 4lb trigger and it is better than the lighter triggers for her.

Betcha like it even more after you toss a couple hundred downrange.
