Picked up a XD Sub Compact

ecotechjosh · 01-08-2010, 03:37 PM

I haven't shot it yet, but if it's anything like my 4" XD service model in 9MM I'm sure it will be perfect. This one is in 9mm too! After WA tax, FFL fee, shipping etc, I paid $476 out the door (new in box)

I have the .40, and it's sweet. I had the XD .40 and sold it to a friend and purchased the .40 Sub. I like how much more comfortable it is to conceal. It does have a lil more kick back, however, if you keep that in mind when you fire, it's easy to keep under control. :D

Congrats!

reppinthe509 · 01-08-2010, 08:00 PM

do they make the xd in 9mm compact?

ecotechjosh · 01-08-2010, 09:29 PM

yup they sure do
Springfield Armory

my 4" service XD that i've had for a while now is a great plinker

reppinthe509 · 01-08-2010, 10:36 PM

isnt the service a regular size pistol?

ecotechjosh · 01-08-2010, 10:45 PM

yes the service model is regular frame w/ 4" barrel. They also have a regular compact which is smaller frame w/ 4" or 3.5" barrel. (can't remember) My subcompact is 3" barrel with small frame

reppinthe509 · 01-08-2010, 11:33 PM

do you carry your service?

ecotechjosh · 01-09-2010, 01:04 PM

I used to, but then again I also used to carry a 1911 lol.

I have a blackhawk holster and it works both with my sub compact and service model. The subcompact is small enough, it should easily fit in my motorcycle jacket and not be terribly noticable while riding (i'm only 5'8" tall)

Just got me the XD sub compact with 13 rnd & 16 rnd mags, with hoister and mag loader for $478 otd price. Great gun. I also got the Crimson Trace laser grip with it for $249 all from Philomath Gun Shop, Philomath, Oregon. They have a great website with all their guns and prices listed online, check em out.

Gotta tell ya, I shot without the laser grip and then with it........much more accurate with the laser.....4 1/2" pattern at 25 yrds..........impressed with a only a 3" barrel..!

very nice, i've been so flooded with homework, I haven't shot mine yet.

reppinthe509 · 01-15-2010, 07:47 PM

hey josh with the speed loader on the 16rd mag does it stick or does it spring back up?

ecotechjosh · 01-18-2010, 10:05 PM

yeah a little tight but will break in with some use.

Put some rounds thru this sub at the gravel pit and was amazed!

hubers454 · 01-22-2010, 07:49 AM

I noticed this with my speed loader as well, it's a very tight fit. I had been using my XDm speed loader which fine on either XD or XDm. I may just see where it sticks and help it "break in" with a file or something.
