Couldn't disagree more, yes you pay for the name,but almost all companies are that way.I have not had any problems. and i own glocks,M&P's, S&W's, and a CZ. My XD's will always be top of my list in reliability, ease of shooting and quality after thousands of rounds through all of em. but what do i know i only have under 500 posts...

Parts are difficult (impossible) to get from Springfield - unlike Glock parts.
Saw a couple of the custom trigger jobs fail/break.
Sold mine. </div></div>
There ya go, Bubba trigger jobs will break, don't know why ya don't like the grip safety, to each his own though. but DO NOT judge a pistols reliability on "CUSTOM"
trigger jobs screwing up.and what parts have you need for the XD you sold? 5400k rounds through my xd45c im still good to go
not making a war here just don't see any justification in the flaming to me, personal preference is fine but saying its unreliable b/c a trigger job broke is ignorant. Plus you DO get what ya pay for IMHO.
