Title: Range trip....And a first for the XD
Post by: Roundman on March 06, 2011, 07:09:20 PM
I took the kids out yesterday morning to do a little shooting. We shot the AR for a bit and then loaded up the XD. One of the fellas beside us was asking some questions about the gun. We talked for a bit and like a dumb a$$ I made the statement "never had a failure in 600 to 700 rounds". Well, three rounds later the slide locks back and no boom. I ran another 50 rounds through it without a problem. I guess one failure out of 600 ain't bad.  :biggrin:

Congrats on getting the kids out.  That is always a good day - jam or no jam.

No, but my daughter called me out on it in front of everyone.

You got that right. Watching them smile after hitting a target is priceless.
