Default 1st range time with XDm

I just put 200 rounds down range for a break in. No problems. It's much lighter than my 1911A1 but it feels very tight. Here are the last ten rounds fired at 25 feet.

I'mnot familiar with the 1911A1 for comparison, so what's the caliber on the XD?

Nice grouping, though.

Yeah, but how far downrange?

My bud bought one of those and had a similar experience. Shot straight and accurate right out of the box, no drama.

Meanwhile, my Colt was throwin' more fits than a high school drama queen for the first 100-150 rounds.

I have no clue what you are joking about.

I had some issue with my Springfield 1911. I sent it back to them and after over a thousand rounds through it not one issue.

Just that everyone was asking you how far, n/m, it wasn't that funny.

Anyhow, nice weapon.

Nice Choices Steve,

I can tell you the Pistol felt great in may hand. I feel that with more practice I should have a much tighter group at 25' and have really good groups at 50'
