    Powder River Precision lighter trigger spring for Springfield XD

    I just replaced the trigger spring and the sear spring to lighten the trigger on my Springfield XD service model. It should be compatible with all XD models. It doesn't change the distance of the trigger pull or trigger reset. Also, the trigger spring's leg is slightly shorter than the factory spring so it has to latch onto the trigger pin instead of the trigger block like the original spring. Other than that the process was pretty simple. The only time consuming part was taking everything out, putting everything back, and getting the trigger spring to latch onto the trigger pin. The trigger pull is noticeably lighter now compare to my other XD pistols. It's suppose to be at around 4.5lbs but I don't have the tools to measure it. It's not bad for $12 for 2 springs and 30 minutes of your time.

    I have put those springs in for people.
    They definitely lighten the trigger.

      Yeah it can be intimidating because I had to remove a lot of stuff to get to the springs... and then put them all back correctly without any extra parts left behind.

        XD's are easy.
        If you think XD's are intimidating, you should play with a P365...
        There are at least 5 steps that you have to do in a very specific order or you will end up taking it apart and putting it together 3-4 times.

            I've done a couple of mine. It makes a noticeable difference in the trigger pull and creep. It should only take 30 minutes but I allow for a couple of hours....
