WHich one do you like better and why?
I have both and like the XD much better personally. I like the grip safety and I have yet to find a round that it won't feed reliably.
I may get kicked off for this discussion HEHE
Yep this is definitely not a new topic!
I have owned a G17 and I currently own an XD-40c. I won't waste anyone's time by bashing the Glock but just say that the XD is a much better ergonomic fit for me. That doesn't mean that is a better gun for all but it is for me.
I used to think I liked Xd better I have a 4 inch 45, had a 5 inch 45, and have a custom XDM. I think the glock is the better gun, but theres not too much difference. :thumbup:
GLOCK for me. XD is ok, but I prefer Glock for reliability and changability. They are easy to work on "if need be". I am not a fan of the grip safety at all, seen them cause shooter unable to fire in akward position once as well. Glocks keep running after thousands of rounds and its proven. XD will catch up one day, but for now, Glock is most proven "Plastic" out there.
ullhair: nothing like stirring pot every now and then huh.
i once went 5k rounds before i cleaned my xd and i never had a problem.
ive seen the torture videos of the Glocks and XDs, thats some crazy stuff. i wanna say a group of guys did a dry torture test with a XD Service 9mm, went thru 26k rounds non stop. They were messing with each other cause they had to keep changing gloves, the heat from the grip got to them pretty good..
Torture Test are cool. You see who has the best product out there when these are done. OFF TOPIC, but why does our military use a flippin M9 and not something much better. either one of these would make a great military weapon. BTT now. might start a new thread for this ?
I've owned an xd and liked it a lot. But ithink it's more of what fits you best. On the flip side I really like the glock 19 and will have one someday.
Between the Glock and the XD, I'll go for... the... 1911. Never owned an XD. My Glock 19 and 17 don't get shot much, but have yet to complain when they do... :2tup:
so SLABS, your answer is Glock then? We all know there is nothing to compare the 1911 to. its tried and true standing all by it self on the metal pedestal. LOL
I have a XDM and love it . I used to be a Glock hater , I used to bash everything plastic. These days not so much, hell I been thinkin bout getin a G-26 so I can have one of each. . . . Did i just say that out loud ? . . . times change.
I started my handgun experience with a Glock 21.... I now own an XD45 Compact and love it. I've been thinking about picking up a G36 SF if they ever apply that new "RTF2" to it. We'll see what happens...
In the mean time, I just had to throw this in for the fun of it :lol4:
