I was doing some research online about the Springfield XD torture test, references are http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Springfield_XD and http://springfield-armory.primediaoutdoors.com/SPstory11.html
One so-called Torture Test was conducted in which an XD-9 was run over with a truck, frozen in a block of ice, caked with sand, and even stripped and degreased, firing nearly 20,000 rounds without a single malfunction in the process.
So I was wondering, I have an XD-9 and really enjoy it, but why does a torture test like this matter? What would I be doing to my XD?
