I have fired approximately 700 rounds through my XD-40. I have personally had ZERO failures of any kind. I have used WWB 165gr FMJ and reloaded WWB with 135gr FMJ.
I have let several other people fire my gun. Those that have fired pistols before did not have any failures either. However, the three people that have never fired a pistol before ALL had failures to extract and feed. Each of these people fired very few shots. I noticed they all had a very light grip on the gun. I told them to use a firm grip. After they did, no more failures.
Theory: A lot of the failures people are having is due to a weak grip on the pistol.

When they come for your guns, give them the ammo first!
