I'm missing something here. The Springfield XD is a single action pistol, right? And it has a grip safety akin to a 1911...also a single action auto. But the XD has no manual safety, right?
That means you carry it with an empty chamber; or you load the XD, cock the XD, and holster the XD....with no manual safety activated. Is this safe?
Revolvers, Glocks, Sigs, and Beretta's...double action. No manual safety no kidding. They are double actions yet how many ND's do we have with same by being alittle too quick in and about the holster? And XD comes on line as a single action...? I hope it's a long pull or new definition of SA.
No one is a bigger advocate than me when it comes to carrying loaded pistols in holsters. I shoot alot of IPSC and IDPA, (I Don't Practice Anymore). Springfield has done much for both. But this? Please explain. Thanks.
