Re: HELP! my XD is broken

apostate:

No, I don't think it's "Kimber leg". Based on the peanut gallery's responses, this was a case of "Blackhawk Serpa leg."

Re: HELP! my XD is broken

lunchbox:

The opinion has been expressed by several people above that they would not want to carry a broken gun.

No one has expressly stated this, though: Consider what would happen if you had to defensively use your ghetto'd-up,
safety-electrical-taped handgun during an armed encounter with a BG.

If a round went astray and hit an innocent party, how good do you think your legal position would be when the police
report details that a factory safety was altered in such a fashion? Your integrity as a safety-minded shootist would be
assailed by the other side's lawyer. Not good.

A properly operating grip safety on an XD is the reason that we don't have a common symptom called "Springfield Armory XD leg",
unlike some other brand associated with self-perforating one's leg. :-)
