Hey guys,

I have an XDM 45 and when I purchased it I thought the rails that the slide operates on at the back of the gun were metal like the front rails. Why aren't the back rails metal also? Does this hurt anything? Will these wear out?

It hurts nothing ... Many polymer pistols are designed with polymer where it should be, and metal where it is needed.
It's just a fact of modern design ... And the XD/XDm is a great design.

Find the pic's - XD9 Fails ... It's been this dirty before, and I have yet to have a problem with function or excessive wear
