    Replacement Front Fiber Optic Sights for XDs? And small review on my

    in Springfield (XD)

    Posted

    Maybe its my old age, but Id like something a bit brighter. Anyone know of a good replacement?

    Small Review:
    I LOVE IT!!!! Coming from a Glock 26, which was great for EDC, this is just perfect. It is thin enough where it disapears in my front pocket. I had the trigger spring kit installed from PRP and, while it is not a HUGE difference, it is a nice difference. It dropped the poundage maybe 1 to 1.5, but the nice thing, is it is just much smoother of a pull. I also had the sand grips installed, and that was a nice touch as well.

    It shot much better with it than I expected at the steel challenge today. I still have to dial it in on paper, but over all, everytime I pulled the trigger the steel made that lovely "Ping" sound, so I was not complaining.

    Thanks

    Can a XDm Trigger get close to the feel of a 1911 trigger?

    1 More question. One of the main reasons I was looking into the XD instead of 1911 or 2011, was because, from my understanding it would require much less maintenance. I love my glocks. I can go months without a good cleaning and it always goes boom when I pull the trigger (i'm not a big fan of the trigger). So I was thinking the XD would kind of be the best of both worlds. A similar trigger to a 1911, yet much less maintenance.

    Am I off base on this?

    Thnx

    I have a Glock 17 with a drop in trigger kit, and while it is better, the pre-travel is quite long as well as VERY slushy. It is a ton better than the factory trigger set up, but am looking for something better. Id like a 2011/1911 but they are a bit out of my price range at the moment.

    In speaking with a gun smith/friend (who is not in the same town Im in), he states he can get the trigger on the XDm, to be very short, light and crisp. He said it would be night and day difference when compared to the Glock and more similar (not the same as) to a 1911.

    What are your thoughts?

    XS Sights for AR15. Problem lining them up.

    Posted · Edited by AnimalCustoms

    I was hoping someone could help me out with the XS "XTI" sights for the AR. I bought them a bit ago and just put them on the ar tonight. But the front dot sits extremely high from the back V. I tried moving them closer and farther apart and they are still way off. Only if I put them right next together does the dot sit right on the V. Are there adjustments or something else I am missing? Any help would be much appreciated as I have a 3gun match this sat.

    Thanks

    New STI Steelmaster. I have a couple of Qs.

    Would a trigger job be recommended?

    There is a wing like thing that sticks out of the core mount (opposite side of the ejection port). Is this where my left hand thumb rests?

    I'm rather new to the open class, this being my first open gun abs any suggestions or add ons would be much appreciated.

    Also Bianchi Cup question. Where can I get wings for the steelmastee. Is that even possible on this gun?
