Added a little something to the collection.  

Any suggestions for the XD's?  I'm looking to accessorize and am in the market for those talon rubber grips...anyone use them?  In some pics they look gray against the black plastic of the gun.

Anyone recommend any cool things for it to "spiff it up" a little?

7 round mag makes handling much easier.

I have the rubber Talon grips on mine and absolutely love 'em.  They do appear grey in color against the black grip, but does not bother me.  The Pearce grip extensions also work well and give you a little more to hold onto.  Great little gun.  No complaints here.  Enjoy it!

CrossBreed MiniTuck holster

Congrats! You'll enjoy it, I kept mine as is but did pick up 2 seven round mags from springfield.  Just ordered an alabama pocket holster for it to carry in cargo pants and may get a crossbreed minituck as well.

Be sure to pick up the pearce mag extension as they are perfect.  On ebay,  they are normally the cheapest.  I got a really nice iwb holster at www.kusiakleather.com for a great price.  I also have talons and they don't appear that gray in person,  only on the pics.   My next investment will be some night sights.

Thanks for the suggestions guys.  I've been looking for the 7 round mag but so far not found it.  Mine came with two 5'ers.  I plan to run it through it's paces this weekend and hope to get those talons and an iwb holster.

Don's Guide Rod and a PRP trigger increased the sweetness of my XDm.

I am with the KISS (keep it simple stupid) camp.

If it was not built with it…do not put it inside your firearm. If you want to add rough textured grip-tape, go for it. Light or laser?  Go for it. Otherwise there is nothing else that you can possibly do to it that will make it more reliable or “better.”  

If you want to make it look cooler you can always have it engraved or personalized but it is not necessary.

sprinfieldarmory.com is where I got my 7 rd., mags....cheapest ones I could find, they were too high on ebay.

More Mags, More ammo, More Training........

PJ holsters has nice IWB holsters (Kydex) and Mag pouches (Kydex) for the XDs.

The talon grip, at least for me softened the xds's grip because it started to hurt after 50 rounds.  Here is a picture of my hand after 40 rounds before I installed the talons.

Pearce grips extensions, Talon rubber grips, bought 1 more 5 rd mag and a 7 rd mag from SA (the 7 rd mag comes with 2 different sized sleeves to match which ever back strap you are using)  and got them in less than a week! Then shoot the heck out of it! Mine shoots great, but the stock grips get old real fast! It's a great pistol and very accurate out to 30 ft, probibly farther but I did my shooting at 30 ft.
