Yeah,

Right out of the box with 12 in the mag and one in the chamber the magazine would lock up in the gun. You could hit the mag release and push it in real hard and nothing. You could push up on the magazine and hit the mag release still locked up. I was having to eject the round from the chamber and then eject the mag. It was pissing me off so while I was sending it to get the combat trigger job with over travel adjustment and the barrel refitting I had it go to the repair shop first so they could fix the magazine issue. I get it back today and we shall see if it is indeed "fixed"

I just wanted to mess with him because he seems to be an XD fanatic... And I do get a little tired of people talking :poop: about Taurus... Most of them have never owned one....anyways, lets get back on topic, I'm glad he got his weapon fixed....

The XD probably saw a Taurus from too close and went into shock.

Actually, he sent it off for some custom work.

He also thought it has a mag release problem (maybe, but I'm doubting it).

There is nothing wrong with a taurus. In fact I plan on getting me a taurus very soon in the near future.

They didnt

They did the combat trigger job with overtravel adjustment, and barrel refitted and the repair shop just played with themselves and never worked on the pistol as far as I can tell cuz it still locks plum up only it is worse now because now I cannot push up on the magazine and hit the mag release now I have to hit the mag release and then pull the damned thing out. I am going to hate it if that damned thing ever jams. So, I reckon I will just have to be careful. I plan on putting 250 rounds through it on Saturday so hopefully that should help with the magazine tightness. I can tell that the gun has tighter lock up now that the barrel was refitted.

Sorry to hear they didn't address the problem. I've shot the 5in. 45, a 4in. 40 and the little sub-compact 9. They worked so well, kind of like a Glock, kind of boring. Which is a good thing. Springfield's CS has a great reputation, I'm sure they'll get it right.:dirty:

They offered to have me send it back again. I told em no thanks I was so pissed off and I had already been without it for four weeks that I was not about to send it back in again.

That does suck. Mine(4" 9mm)has never had a FTF or FTE .Of course I have only had it three months now but 600 rds so far three different brands no problems at all. Keep us updated on the customer service issue if you decide to get it worked on again

I have a couple thousand rounds through my XD and XDm. The only failure to feed I have had was due to a dirty magazine. Cleaned it and it went away. Sorry to hear about your troubles. Four weeks is an eternity to be without your beloved XD. :)

Oh Shoot Postus Maximus

His didn't have an FTF or FTE either.

Also, I don't think he'll be updating you on anything, as I believe his "vacation" is probably a permanent one.
