Springfield Armory ’ S D-S 60 WWW.AMERICANHANDGUNNER.COM • MARCH/APRIL 2013
XD-S Hah! Here’s proof His Illuminated Editorial Immenseness Roy-Boy actually reads my stuff! In the July/August 2012 issue I mentioned I don’t like those teensytiny, mini-micro .380 pocket pistols, period. I compared `em to crazed goldfish tryin’ to squirt outta my hands, and I’ll add this: They’re like crosses between piranha and lamprey eels, because they bite AND they suck. My next call from El Roi went like this: “I’m sending you a pistol (snickersnicker chuckle). Shoot it, group it, write it up and send it back pronto — in one piece (suppressed guffaws). You’re gonna love it. It’s very, very John Connor • Photos:Chuck Pittman,Inc. A Superb .45 ACp CoAt-poCket CAnnon little (hyena-like laughter). No, it’s tiny, and feather-light, and the best part? Oh, it’s powerful! ENJOY!” Maybe he had more to say, but he then descended into breathless chokin’ cackles and hung up. Truthfully, I wasn’t looking forward to this. I’ve shot several compact and sub-compact .45s and haven’t liked shooting any of them, for many of the same reasons I don’t like the 9.5-ounce .380s. They serve their purpose, but dang, they point poorly, bite, squiggle and tend to choke. I’ve carried a bulkier .45 of roughly equal weight to the XD-S as a backup for eight years. But I only shoot it twice annually, to clear its throat and assure it runs right, because it’s manifestly UNpleasant to shoot! I figured the XD-S could be, at best, WWW.AMERICANHANDGUNNER.COM 61
