No 6 O'Clock with XD's

I have shot several XD's, and own an XD9, and there is not 6 o'clock aiming with these guns. Hits low every time. Shooting a 1911 Colt WWII model it shout awesome with 6 o'clock.

i found this thread (Correct sight picture for XD9?), but that i would start my own.

What sites do you recommend for shooting at 6 o'clock. I much prefer to shoot 6 o'clock.

Thanks.

Really?

I use a 6-o'clock hold on my XD-40 Service all the time and it hits dead on with 180gr ammo. Bought it brand new 5 years ago and it still shoots point-to aim. That and its reliability are why I keep the thing.

I also got one of the original finish XDs that didn't rust...so maybe I am special? LOL

Same for my XD45, whether I shoot it or my father or my FIL. We have to cover the bullseye.

Me too with my .45 compact tactical. Took me a couple hundred rounds to figure that out.

I shoot 6 O' clock with my XD9 service, XD9 sc, and my old XD40sc. I just picked up my XD45c; I'm not sure how it shoots yet.

You cannot legislate morality, and banning inanimate objects will never substitute for personal responsibility. Banning and limiting things merely makes them profitable to criminals via laws of supply and demand.
