XD Mod 2 service model

Anybody see the Guns&Ammo article on this thing? They've made numerous improvements to the original XD, mainly on the ergonomics.

As soon as this thing comes out in 40 S&W, I'm going to trade my original XD for one of these, looks like a very nice pistol.

I held a new one the other day and like the improvements other than the "grip zone" written on it. Other than the grip, the sights are a nice touch.

I handled one last week at a local shop. Loved the grip, nice sights, really considered buying it until I tried to dry fire it. With my hands and my thumbs forward grip I didn't push in the grip safety fully and at times could not fully pull the trigger. I don't have this problem with my XD 45 Service model. It's a shame because I really liked the Mod 2.
