Springfield XD - Detailed Teardown & Assembly Videos

Post by pdubyoo »

I found these videos on the web by Mac Teutates, on detailed disassembly and reassembly of the Springfield XD series handguns. This is a 7-part series, and I found it very informative. I thought I would share them with all my XD brothers and sisters.

Part 1 - Introducing the Springfield XD Pistol - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kj8FTAGWtg0

Part 2 - General Field Strip - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=npDufZcxwpM

Part 3 - Upper End Detailed Teardown - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aovE1trVwho

Part 4 - Lower End Detailed Teardown - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=39DFY14vtVw

Part 5 - Lower End Reassembly - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4DmNgyNZ0hA

Part 6 - Upper End Reassembly - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dqj0lcL9I3Y

Part 7 - 3rd Safety Feature Explained - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eR9RprsHmPo

I'm not sure how the newer XDM series parallels with the XD. I'd be interested in hearing from some of you XDM owners on the internal differences.

I carry +P loads, and have shot roughly 250 through my XD40 without any problems. I asked a gunsmith who went to armorers school for Springfield, including the XD, and he said no problemo. :thumbs2:
