I had the opportunity to shoot Springfield Armory's new 9mm version of the XD-S pistol for Personal Defense World. It was to promote the cover story on the same gun in the current issue of Combat Handguns magazine.

I was a big fan of the XD-S in .45 ACP since I shot it at Media Day at the Range a couple of years ago. I'm not a 9mm person for CCW carry, even though I love 9mm as a plinking round. But I did like the XD-S 9mm.

Here are the two videos I did on the gun. One for Personal Defense World, and the other one for my YouTube channel. They each have some unique content.

hope to have mine soon as they are coming in pretty regularily at LGS. I already have the one in 45, my only complaint on it is the amount of force to rack the slide, I need to build up my hand strength. I have to use the slide lock release to chamber the first round, only have about 50 rounds thru the gun, I am hoping slide loosens up a little.
