Make your XD an XDP

XDP
XDP
Extream Duty PERFICT

Ok I know every one has heard of Canyon Creek and BarSto. I have 3 XD's there the only pistols I own other than several 1911's and a few wheel guns. If you some how prefer glocks, HK, or Sigs over the XD's you havent made you XD PERFICT yet. Although in my oppinion the XD is still the best pistol for the money out of the box period!!!

XD BI 40 4"

XD 9mm 5"

XD .45acp 5"

On all my XD's I have sent them to canyon creek for there competition triger job. I sent my first one to BarSto and another to Canyon Creek. I ended up sending the one I sent to Barsto back to Canyon, lol. In my oppinion the break is much chrisper and less over all travel. I also sent them to BarSto for a Grip Reduction, Titanium Rod, and BarSto Match Barrel. I will honestly say I do think the match barrel is better than the stock barrel, but you will never know the difference unless your very good. So I wouldent invest the $250 in that as I did. I sent them to Tripp for there Cobra Chrome on the slide and all small parts. They do an awesome job. Dawson Fiber Front and I never have changed the rear stock sites, lol yeah i know but I like them i guess. I did consider a Low Mount Bomar that BarSto does but decided no to. Guys I shoot these pistols more than my 1911's need I say more????

I probably have put around $650 in each of these guns, not counting the BarSto Barrels, but like I said I wouldent do that. It really is worth it, these XD's are as good a pistol out there and I paid around $500 for each of them so I have around $1150 in them. I have 1911's that are more than twice that. Speaking of that, any one looking to buy some 1911's lol

Happy Shooting Guys

Yes, In my oppinion the BarSto grip reduction is the only way to go. They are the only company I have ever sent any of my pistols for grip reductions. Every one I send off comes back just as I wanted it, somethings change is not a good thing, im sticking with BarSto for my grip reductions.

I noticed that Rich @ CC puts the low mount bomars practically hanging off the back while the Barsto is well forward. Why is that?
