Springfield XD - Detailed Teardown & Assembly Videos
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.

Just one thing.
Where's the video that shows me what to do with the left over springs and pins after I reassemble the gun ?

Re: Springfield XD - Detailed Teardown & Assembly Videos
Question...A little off topic...sorry , but I don't see in the owners manual about using +p ammo.
Anyone know if that's a no no in the XD ?

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.USA1 wrote:Question...A little off topic...sorry , but I don't see in the owners manual about using +p ammo.

Some manufacturers make clear not to , so I wasn't sure about the XD.
