If the price drops and it is offeref in different cal.

D-Bo · 05-16-2008, 02:58 AM

I voted no. Unless they come out with a compact bi-tone .357 sig which is not offered in the standard XD...

i voted no....

i just dont care for the looks of it, i like the standard XD better

**GerryM** · 05-16-2008, 05:41 AM

I voted no, have 3 XD's now and just can't justify another one right now

BDZ71 · 05-16-2008, 05:52 AM

If I do ill wait for the .45 or other calibers to come out. And give it time to be on the market for a little while to see if there are any bugs that need to be worked out.

Im more than happy with my current XD

Maybe later, but only if offered in 45 (or even 9)... i dig the new look, but am wary about the overcomplicated trigger assembly. It'd have to come down in price, too.

I voted Yes but don't want it in .40 looking for 357 Sig, 9MM or .45 ACP.

I like the new design and everything. But at the cost difference that I'm seeing right now, I dont see it worth the extra coin, just to get the look. I'm sure after this initial wave of running out to get the latest slows down and the costs are close to the current XD.

Currently If I were to buy a new pistol today, I think better money spent on a standard XD 450'ish and invest those extra 200 in it... I think you would be further ahead in the 650 investment.

Will be interesting to see if Springfield continues to offer both the XD and the XDM in the future. Lots of extra MFG costs to build both. Once production ramps up, I cannot see why they would continue to produce both..?
