45 Comp Tac - How Nice! - XDTalk Forums - Your HS2000/SA-XD Information Source!

Forgot how nice my 45 compact 4" shoots! Got a TLR-2 hanging off the front and there's hardly any muzzle flip. Been shooting my 3" 45 1911's and taking a beating! My XD's been doing safe duty as my primary HD weapon. Shot all kinds of +P JHP loads today and nary a whimper out of it, keeps on ticking.

I assume you are referring to the 5" Com Tac, and I have to agree. A little extra weight up front with your TLR-2 really smooths it out. I just added Don's fat guide rod to add ~2oz of weight, but even that made it real nice

Didnt he say his 4" compact?? Does Don's make a fat guide rod for that or just the 5" Tac??

**XD9Sub** · 11-21-2007, 10:02 AM

Yes, he said 4", but I think the original poster wanted to say 5", since he titled the thread 45 Comp Tac. The fat guide rod is only for the 5" Tactical.

My bad, it is 4", should have said service.
