hueycrew Posted September 30, 2010 Share Posted September 30, 2010 While cleaning my XD9 Tactical I noticed some damage on the lower lug where a C is formed. (Not sure on the nomenclature/proper terms) The lower part is smooth and burr free. The upper part looks like it is chipping away. My loads are about a 135PF (finally bought a chrono) and using an 18 lb spring. Anyone else seen this before? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hueycrew Posted September 30, 2010 Author Share Posted September 30, 2010 Contacted SA and it looks like I'll be shipping it back for the repair. I've heard good things about turn around time and good customer service. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Classic_jon Posted September 30, 2010 Share Posted September 30, 2010 Yep, my XD .40 is about to go in for the same issue but on the bottom part of the "C" of the barrel locking lug. I just need to get it over to the place I bought it from for them to ship it back to Springfield FFL to FFL. In talking to Springfield since I am not home during the day they will not ship it back to my place without an adult signature upon delivery. With my past experience with my local UPS and fed-ex drivers leaving "signature required" packages on my doorstep signed "front door" I am not going to take the chance of them leaving a firearm there.... I guess I can not complain too much, I do have over 20k rounds through the thing and the only other issue I have had is that the plastic guide rod for the cocked indicator cracked and they sent me another one and I had it in a couple of days.

Stony Lane Posted October 1, 2010 Share Posted October 1, 2010 I had a similar problem with my XD tactical. Springfield wanted the entire gun to fit a new barrel. Turn around was fairly fast. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hueycrew Posted October 2, 2010 Author Share Posted October 2, 2010 Did SA give a reason why the damage occured? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hueycrew Posted October 15, 2010 Author Share Posted October 15, 2010 Should have it back in my hands this Tuesday. Lets see if the Fedex guy does an "ring and run" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
d_striker Posted October 16, 2010 Share Posted October 16, 2010 Should have it back in my hands this Tuesday. Lets see if the Fedex guy does an "ring and run" Did you have to send the whole gun back or just the barrel? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hueycrew Posted October 17, 2010 Author Share Posted October 17, 2010 I sent the whole gun. RMA with shipping paid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beretta Lover Posted October 17, 2010 Share Posted October 17, 2010 i had two bust on my XD tactical Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hueycrew Posted October 19, 2010 Author Share Posted October 19, 2010 XD was returned as scheduled. New Barrel. I'll test fire it tomorrow. Hope that is the last time I have to send it back. On a positive note, the fedex guy waited until my wife answered the door to sign for the package. I'm sure he knew what was in the box. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hueycrew Posted October 21, 2010 Author Share Posted October 21, 2010 Test fired yesterday. All is well except I had a squib load. That is another issue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
