Scott,
I'm sending my XD45 for trigger work and sights and some other work. Can I get a discount as I am a member of XD Talk??

Scott,
Love the trigger feel now.... Wish the factor would setup the trigger this way when I bougth it. I shot 300 rounds through it today..... Had some problems but not sure its due to the ammo. 3 jams and 5 misloads.... all occured with MagTech ammo. The other ammo was CCI Blazer... worked great. The MagTech ammo jammed and dented the ammo. Seems to jams while loaded another round after a shot. Also sometimes the last shot won't keep the slide open. All using the MagTech ammo. Any suggestions? Tomorrow I'm taking a Personal Defense class so I'll see what happens. I'll use the CCI Blazer to start. Also had installed a mag extension. Could that be also a problem? Would I need new springs for the mag? Misfeeds and jams seem to occur during the 4th or 5th shot.

Otherwise great feel with the trigger... sights are great and the turn around time was not to long. I know you had a shooting match. But you got back check the work and made some adjustments and got it back to me like you said. A man of his word is a rare thing. So 1000% thanks and I look forward to passing the word around here about your workmanship.

Took a basic defense shooting class Sunday and worked out the grip problem. That may have caused the jams. Then that production lot of MagTech ammo could have been the problem too. Shot 100 rds. of MagTech on Sunday and had zero problems. Again Scott thanks for the EXCELLENT work you did on my XD45. I'm very, very please with it. Maybe looking to get another XD. If I do the first thing I do to it is a trigger job from you.

Scott's great...he's worked on 1-2-3-4-5 soon 6 of my SAs...so far though, EMP is my favorite, although I shoot my other guns better.

Scott,
How do you unjammed a ported barrel? or if the recoil spring is in backwards?? (I got one from EFK Fire Dragon.)
