After discovering the XD pistols when they first came out under Springfield Armory I finally have one of my own. From what I gathered from the XD45 section I might have some fine tuning to do. (ejector rod, mag springs...) This'll be the only defensive firearms I own for a long time and that's exactly why I bought it. With our tested and proven guard dog gone, it's up to us humans to pick up the slack.

If I can ever find an XD Armorer's course I want to take it. I want to be able to fix anything that might go wrong with my gun myself.

Welcome. Buy lots of ammo and practice until it just feels natural. The XD's are fun to shoot.
