Howdy folks. I've only owned an XD for about a year, and my Glock 26 for only a few months. I came from shooting revolvers, Smith and Wesson autos, SIG Sauers, H&Ks and 1911s. When I started getting into shooting the XDs and the Glocks, I noticed that my trigger finger was not used to the trigger safety of the XD/Glock and that after about 200 rounds, I developed XD/Glock finger. Basically, it feel slike it has been rubbed raw and it is swollen a bit. I have played guitar for about 15 years, so I am familiar with callous development. After taking my HS2000 to the range for 200 rounds today, I notice that my trigger finger could really use some extra padding on the lower part of the pad. I'm not one to wear gloves, so I'll just have to shoot it more and develop that callous. Anyone else ever notice this from transitioning from other firearms designs? I can't imagine if I took a Glock or an XD/HS to a training class. I'd probably be bleeding from the finger tips! :lol: Some 1911 shooters, like myself, typically have that scar from hammer bite (assuming they have experience with non-beavertailed safeties and use a high hold) so I'm wondering if your XD/Glock guys have ultra tough trigger fingers? I guess when I'm done, shooters will be able to look at my hands and tell which firearms I own!
