In case you are in the market for a Springfield XDs 9mm, Carter's country in Pasadena has a black for $560 and a bi-tone for $630


Edited to add, both are post recall weapons

As of about two hours ago, my "post recall" XDs45 is sitting in one of my ffl buddy's shop pending either $475 cash deal or a trade deal for a particular rifle if he can track it down. If it's a cash deal, I "lost" a whole $25 to rent the gun for 4 months (actually only 2 months - Springfield had it for the other two months). If the rifle deal works out, I lose nothing.

The XDs is a well made handgun, and mine was totally reliable and would have made a great carry gun, if I could shoot it. I just could NOT get accustomed to the trigger, and did not want to alter my normal handgun muscle memory that centers primarily around da/sa revolvers and D/A Kahr pistols. I gave it one more try yesterday and still shot 4-6 inches low, offhand, at 7-10 yards. Then pulled out the Kimber Compact and ate the shoot n see off the cardboard. The Kimber hasn't been in my carry rotation in 3-4 years, but it just may return.

I have no doubt that a lot of folks can make the XDs sing, but unfortunately I couldn't.

Buds has both the 9mm and the 45 in stock for $499.00 with free shipping. It torques me that mine is still at the factory while they are selling new ones (at less money than I paid for mine). Something just not right about that.

Being an early adopter can come back to bite you. Hopefully, you will get yours back soon.

Palmetto State Armory is selling them for $439 with a $100 gift card included.

I just got back from the "shop" with $475 in my pocket for my factory upgraded XDs. Actually only lost $28 and some "time" on the gun, but it was just another gun experience to add to the list.
