1st range report on XD-45-not so good-problems with pins

I took the new XD 45 to the range. It is an awesome shooter
However, after about 40 rounds, I noticed the pin which holds the rails(Rail Pin?) coming out. it almost completely came out.
I put the pin back in and I shot 20-30 more rounds. I noticed the trigger pin coming out also.
I think the recoil is moving the pins out.
Is anyone also having the same problem.
the owner of the gun shop told me he is going to contact Springfield and let me know if I have to send it back.
I decided to send it back to SA.

This is the first problem I've heard regarding the pins Let's hope it's an isolated incident. Please report back and tell us what SA says and does.

Welcome to the forum. Thanks for checking in on this problem. Not a good thing to happen. I'm sure SA will have you send it in for inspection. Really like to hear what they have to say about the fix after they look at it.

My pins are not coming out but they are rusty. I guess they did not treat mine.
