Title: IDPA/Springfield XD question
Post by: Aglifter on April 15, 2006, 08:03:42 PM
WHOOP!!!  This is quite fun -- just like playing cowboys and indians, but w.  more fun versions of my old cap guns.  However, a couple things A)  I really should have replaced the springs on my Pro Carry II Kimber.  B) Dovetail sights on an AK aren't very useful -- ghost rings or reflex would be much better -- still don't plan to switch to an AR though, since I saw too many jams, and no matter how badly the 20 round 9mm Glocks beat me, I won't switch to a 9mm.

However, I am leaning toward a Springfield XD in 45, to replace my Kimber -- I'm thinking this does tend to reflect a realistic "nightmare" scenario, and having to reload a 1911 so frequently is a drawback.

Anyone have an opinion on an XD?
