For $199 its not a bad deal but the trigger is blah.

Springfield?

Ameriglo #8 for the front sight. Can leave the rear stock. Here are the 3 part numbers depending on the ring color you desire but get it done professionally. XDMan is a great choice if you don't already have a favorite local gunsmith. SG-212-220-G (green) SG-212-220-O (orange) SG-160-8 (white)

To avoid misunderstanding I'm not advocating for it as a solution and am only identifying that it may matter to someone. Opinions and tastes vary whether well founded or not and application however fringe may fit some need or use case. Doubtfully ineffective but I personally wouldn't put my...

Lighter carry weight is probably the best sell but there are lower cost options to achieve that. Piercing armor I suppose but that isn't super practical for common defensive use and doubtfully rated for that capability. Someone who is super worried about overpenetration (assuming they aren't...

I think the point is a relative idea of performance rather than accuracy.

Its usefulness and capability is entirely dependent upon context.

There are a lot of them and I'm curious as to why the manufacturers don't go after them over IP. hxxps://springfieldgunsusa.com hxxps://springfieldfirearmstore.com hxxp://coltgunstore.com hxxp://glockgunsusa.com hxxps://glocksguns.com hxxps://mossberggunshop.com hxxp://czarmory.com...

There are indeed a lot of them

Sorry. One short of impressive. ;)

The XDE is a very good firearm. It is very reliable, accurate, thin but very comfortable in the hand. In 9mm it is a soft shooter with light recoil. I also agree the trigger is not well designed. LOP is longer than any other DA/SA I've tried and as you note the trigger is too curved. I also...

I would assume it was an error by the gunsmith and a slight irregularity to the dovetail and not specifically an issue with the Ameriglo sight. Ameriglo uses a softer metal. If using a pusher with force against the side of their sight it can snap off if the blade gets hung up in the dovetail...

Thank you for the post @OkiePewPew After looking into this it also impacts other ammo manufactured by Olin and impacts Herters and Browning. https://winchester.com/Support/Customers/Herters-9mm-Luger-115-gr-Recall https://browningammo.com/browning-9mm-luger-115-gr-recall.html

All the shops near me have well stocked gun cases. Ammo availability seems to go through cycles but always sells out quick. It’s necessary to be at the front of the line on the day the trucks arrive. It would be nice if Academy would limit their boxes further though. They’ve been very...

Most of the inventory that shows up on their site are ghosts

Problem solved: Buy more guns! ;)

Hard and fast objects pass through things. Train. Don't miss.

Springfield sights aren’t always easy to remove because of the way they are pressed in. If you take it to a gunsmith that doesn’t have a lot of experience with them they can end damaging the slide. I took one to a gunsmith that attempted to push out a sight only to bend and damage their own...

If you need to cut corners on cost, Truglo Tritium or Tritium Pro and Meprolight are decent options. They aren't quite as vivid as the recommendations that XDMAN listed though. There is a reason their price is a little higher. Ameriglo and XS also make some nice sights. Whatever you choose...

The only ammo I found disappointing was Federal white box range ammo. The casings were so soft that my loader was indenting them with just normal hand pressure applied during loading. A few creased badly enough that I wasn't comfortable with firing those and discarded them. I'd buy it again...
