nice

 

[BigHoss]

Very nice...little piece of destruction!

 

[Mikewood]

Very disappointed in the form factor. It's the same size as an officers 1911. It was touted as a pocket pistol and looks larger than every "small" self defence gun.

I will withhold final judgment until I can handle one in person, but from the pics I am liking what I'm seeing!

Cheers! M2

made in Croatia ?

made in Croatia ?

That's where the XD is from. Springfield didn't develop it, they just bought rights to distribute, and named it the XD.

The original design was from a Croatian company, if I'm not mistaken. Springfield bought the design and kept the manufacturing in place.

Yes, it was originally the HS2000, produced by "IM Metal" in Croatia.

yep, you can still pick up some hs2000's now and then too.

that got a 40 coming also as well as a 9

5+1 capacity...pretty weak in my opinion for what the gun is going to cost. If they do in fact come out with the 9mm version I imagine it would be 8/9+1? If so I will be getting one for the wife since her favorite handgun is her 9mm XDSC...

 

[timf79]

I would like to see/feel it in person...

I like the fact that it's a .45 but I'm just wondering how you hold on to it? Grip looks awfully short. But I would also have to handle one before any final judgement.

No worse than a Baby Glock IMO.

May be better than the baby Glocks. It's a bit thinner. But it's still too short, in my opinion, for my hand without an extention.

 

[just jk]

as a springfield fan - i'm interested but i will need to hold this one in my grubby mitts before laying out that kind of money

I meant the grip length should be about the same. Looks the same...

 

[just jk]

if the grip is any smaller/shorter than the xd subcompact, i doubt i'll have any interest in it

that little thing kicks like an angry mule in the .40 caliber - i can only imagine how it would shoot in .45 acp

 

[Charlie]

The grip length without a pinky/mag ext. on a baby Glock is too short for me. Already tried those. They're "OK" with an extention but .............then it was the same size as my Defender (actually wider than the Defender) and the little Colt holds 7+1.
