Never owned one.

I have a V10 port version of it. I like it. It's about the size of a Glock 17. The most annoying thing about it is the grip safety. I like the trigger better than my Glock 19 or Glock 36.

I have had this pistol for 6 years and love it. Very accurate for IDPA matches and reliable. Quick reset. Crisp trigger. The grip safety requires a tight grip when clearing and making safe after a Stage run at IDPA.

I would have bought one but I'm not into grip safeties. Went team Glock instead.

It's a good gun though.

Great gun.

I did have some issues with the edge of the brass on WWB snagging the feedramp and jamming, but I'm convinced it was a (few) bad batches of ammo... this was back in '05 or '06.

I've not had any problems lately, never a problem with hollowpoints.
Very accurate, very solid, and a nice comfortable grip.

Is this one still on roster?

Great gun and pretty soft shooting for the 4" service model. If you don't mind me recommending you the Beretta px4 Storm as well. To me, I think you get more out of the storm vs the xd. DA/SA trigger, multiple back straps, external safety, decocker (you can also convert to decocker only), not sure if Beretta is still running their 2 free magazine promo but if they are that's a plus. This is going to be subjective but the storm feels more comfortable in my hands, xd feel good but storms feel better. Again subjective, recoil on the storm is different due to the barrel rotating system..some say this causes FTE but I have yet run into any issues. I've put about 5-600 rounds down range (low count still) but nonetheless they were all flawless. I even had a brand new petite female (yes sex is irrelevant) shooter put 100 rounds down range without any issues. It is a hammer style pistol and if you're not into those then sorry for wasting your time, but if you're open to it I definitely would recommend you shooting one and judge it for yourself. Also price wise it's pretty similar if not the storm is cheaper.

I've been happy with mine after owning a 17 and 19. The grip angle is much more natural. Grip safety hasn't been a big deal. Finding and changing sights is a pita, though. Haven't had any problems yet.
