XD Subcompact 40 Third Range Report Part 3

Okay so I take the XD to the range a third time with some UMC 180 grain ammo to check to see if the ammo was the problem but it had consistent failures to extract at least 1 to 2 times out of every 100 rounds. It is getting progressively worse. It could be the extractor or a rough chamber since there is a circular mark on the top of every piece of brass that ejects from the pistol all in the same place.

Second, the gun is defiantly showing signs of some trigger slap, it hurts to even put a full magazine through it and just to make sure I wasn’t hallucinating I had a range officer try it, he got the same thing.

So the short of it, it’s going back to the factory.

I will post a report of the customer service and repairs I receive.
 
Did they say anything informative on the phone when you called them up to return it? Or did they just say send it in?
 
I just sent it in. Now I hear this voice in my head repeating..."should've got a Glock...Should've got a Glock."

Of course that voice could be inspired by other cops telling me I should've got a Glock. :barf:
 
glock has lemons that get through too. You don't hear stories of xd's exploding. Its frustrating to have problems, but hopefully it will bet taken care of quickly and painlessly.
