So glad you like this Springfield, my first semi auto was a stainless slide XDM 40 s&w 16rnd with 4.5” barrel, it was an absolute tackdriver, I still have a few videos on my page shooting it and hitting multiple times at 50yds easy, every SA I’ve owned had worked very well, I get some people just don’t care for them it’s all good and all comes down to personal preference, great video! Also I always like and am a subscriber : ) God bless!
Just found out about this gun when looking at the Echelon...well needless to say this is the one I'll be getting...price point is crazy😂 Thank Sir and God Bless
Thanks for the review Brother! Just bought 2. Perfect learning gun for my teenagers (love the passive safety). Drove to the Scheels flagship in Dallas so we could try everything and kept coming back to the Mod 3. Ergs were excellent, has chamber and charge indicators, trigger was surprisingly excellent (tad long on the reset but natural), solid sights, perfect front serrations and rear wing/flared slide back… and the price! This blew away the S&W SD9. Decided that with in-store rebates it just made more sense to get a second one than spend $30 on a 2nd mag :). This also gives me an excuse to get the 32 round mag lol. Certainly other options out there with higher tier components, but not as feature-rich or wallet conscious.
It really is crazy value, through all the hate XDs have gotten they've always been reliable guns. Plus this one 299 you get optics cut flat faced trigger a really safe system and springfield has some of the best mags for the $$. I love my glocks, HKs and FNs but I also like a good deal.
@popupheadlights heck yeah man I get more excited about value that works that a super expensive power house I have. Thanks for watching and commenting and be sure to subscribe if you haven’t already
I appreciate Springfield arms as it is a great American company, but I just like Smith and Wesson best. But I’ve never owned a Springfield so idk. What do you think if compared?
Well, sadly, I have not had the best of luck with quality control concerning Smith & Wesson so I guess it depends on what model you would be specifically referring to but in the case of this one, the XD mod three makes the SD 92.0 look like a airsoft pistol. 🔫. Also, Springfield is an American own company, but 85% of their guns are manufactured in Croatia 🇭🇷. I guess at least Smith & Wesson is made here in the states but I’m not a huge fan of Smith and Wesson either thanks for watching and for commenting be sure to subscribe if you have not already
@@GSquaredTactical I guess I was referring to the M&P 2.0 Compact 9mm. So what quality control issues have you had and on which Smith & Wesson firearm?
Yes I do not have a video on the failure of the response because it was something that happened when a friend of ours was shooting it but the other three I do have videos up yes
I appreciate you thanking God and informing people of his free plan of salvation! The most important thing you can ever do in life is free! Jesus paid our sin debt at Calvary with his precious blood.
I have the Springfield echelon and the new XD mod three I would not get rid of neither one. I like the grip on my echelon my new XD nine is my truck and gym gun.
This is the first time I’ve ever heard of the rails on the rear of the gun wearing out,, yes they are plastic but look how much metal is on the front rail, it takes 99% of the ware and as for the rails on the rear just look how it’s built ,,
I mean, I’m looking at some of my CZ and even a couple of my older Glocks. In fact I have looked at several of my big namebrand guns since you made this comment and a lot of them have plastic at the rear some of them a lot and I have ran those guns in some cases three or 4000 rounds, and I don’t see any noticeable wear. So I don’t know how many rounds you would have to put through it for it to wear enough to make the frame worthless, but I can’t imagine that the average person is not going to put that many rounds through it.
@@GSquaredTactical I’m with you,, it’s mite be possible it happened some kind of fluke thing ,, but I’ve never ever heard of one wearing out,, I’ve got one of the first xdm made and I no I’ve gotten 15k rounds threw it and the back rail is fine,,, hell I no a guy that has one that’s got close to 35k rounds he was telling me at the gun range a couple weeks ago and I no he’s telling the truth he’s a retired Green beret and was in the ranger regiment and he reloads his on ammo and shoots a couple times a week and pounds the crap out of his equipment,, he goes threw all the shooting drills he done in the military and he’s a dam good shooter,, I’ve learned so dam much buy just watching him,, it’s amazing how all them S.F groups can shoot.
Listen bro if you do not like it then do not watch it. It truly is just that simple. I’m not going to change up how I do things when the vast majority and I do mean the vast majority do not have a problem with it and I still to this day have never understood, why it is that people even take the time of day to type up something hateful on TH-cam because if I watch a video that I do not like I just simply click out of it and go to one I do like in no way am I going to be hateful to that person, unless I am genuinely trying to give that person some kind constructive criticism, which I never do either because it’s not my business. I mean, I have had way way way more people tell me that they want me to speak less and shoot more and then some people say they like the music and some people say they do not And I do care about what the people watching think however I’m going with the majority on this one. So what I have done recently is I have done so with music have done some where I start out talking about it first and then do the shooting with the music, and then some with no music at all because I want to have something for everyone. Why I have no idea, but I know at the end of the day. I’m just going to do me no matter what people like you might say. So you, sir have a good day and you sir get on with it already.
It does but I do not have any other XD pistols. I ordered two OEM 16 round magazines from a place called Joe Bob outfitters $29 for both of them shipped. Should be here any day. Thanks for watching and be sure to subscribe if you have not already.

@GSquaredTactical I'm tge same way plus it'd easier to justify 299 to the wife vs $1200 lmao
That is exactly right, bro
Thank you very much Have a beautiful and blessed weekend. LORD GOD Bless and stay vigilant.
Ty sir
Great video it’s just an overall quality gun for the price! You can always buy spare magazines to as well.
Yessir
I have been pleasantly surprised with Springfield Armory XD Series pistols... I will eventually get one of these too.
At that price you can’t beat it
Amen brother 🙏
Ty sir for watching
Doing great 👍. Liking the looks.

This is a nice gun . but the rear plastic slide rails are junk . shame on springfield for doing this . when they wear out the gun is junk .
