I just bought my XD 45 on Thursday and took it out for spin today. Since this is my first 45 I had to stop by Wally World for some ammo. I picked up 100 rounds of American Eagle and went to the end of the road to an unofficial firing area. Loaded her up and started blasting away. An absolute dream to fire! No misfires, FTFs or FTEs. Every time I pulled the trigger it went BANG! and ejected the spent shell. One time I chambered a round and topped off the mag. Then I proceeded to squeeze off 14 rounds as fast as I could. I switched mags and shot off another 13 rounds as fast as I could. Absolutely flawless performance.
As for the holster that comes with it, forget about using it for CCW. It makes the pistol stick out way too far. Plus it's canted forward, whereas I'm a crossdraw concealer. So I went ahead and ordered a FIST #42 crossdraw holster for it.
If anyone is thinking about the XD 45, I can heartily recommend it.
