Anybody have any experience with either of these guns? I am particulary interested in reliabilty. They cost a lot more then Glock 40 S&W's and Glock is pretty hard to beat on reliability. The last thing I want to do is buy what appears to be a really nice firearm for lots of money only to have it be temperamental with ammo and jam. One thing on the range another in a self defense scenario. Inputs appreciated. Regards
I just put 300 rounds through a new SA XD .40 cal. It was fantastic! Mags were a little tight at first. Slide was also tight at first. Everything else was perfect. Not even the slightest jam. All shells flew up and back. Just as advertised. I was wondering if I was just rationalizing about how good the XD is because I just bought it. But no, It felt really good and I really like it!
