Xmas gift for myself

Well Im looking to buy myself an xmas gift so I figure it could be for my new xd 9mm. Now my question is, is it a bad idea to buy the drop in barrel and the dons guide rod if Im a new shooter? should I just wait till a later date? Or will this improve my shooting now only having been out shooting twice.

It is up to you and tough for us to say. My wife is a new shooter and we have our barrel in her gun. We went with the drop-in barrel and it prints better than the stock barrel did. Is it worth it? It was to me, since she had no idea that I did the swap and she was impressed with the group.

Well I'm going to order it then. I just wanted to know if it was stupid to get as a new shooter. Thanks for the fast response : ) Oh and final question it may be dumb but how it says the tactical will fit the service? now if in the selection I pick the service model is it going to fit without extending past the slide?

If you have a XD Service model, you purchased the correct barrel.

Since you are new to shooting and live in OH, trying to meet some of the great XDTalk guys from OH, as there are many who can show you the ropes!
