Why springfield why?
I had a account here before so please dont think i'm just here to rant. Just cant find my log in info for the hell of it.
My problem is just this one.
I realize the issue when it comes to putting out new product. i know almost every time there are delays .
But why in the world would you advertise a certain month ( march ) and not deliver on it?? Why dear god why
And yes i'm talking about the XDS. I think its horrible marketing and shouldve not been posted.
P.S. i still buy one when they come out . lol

Well it was shipping to distributors in March? From there they have to ship to dealers. I can only imagine how many are on backorder already. Patience is a virtue.

This happens with a lot of "highly anticipated" products. Cars, video games, phones... Sometimes you do wonder if it's just to make us more anxious

It stinks that it didn't come out in March, but at least it's allowing me to save more money to upgrade sights, trigger, and ammo for it!!

It's always, as I understand, been said late March/early April.
If it's not out by Tax Day, then start kvetching. Nobody will really care, but at least then you may have a point.
Otherwise, be a big boy, and learn patience.

Three days "late" and you're having a hissy fit.

The voices in my head have already confirmed the XDs-10mm proto is nearing testing phase.
