I thought they also lowered the bore axis on the Mod.2?

Regardless, I'll never have a reason to give up my Mod.1 - I love the waffle grip, and I love the gun. I wish it were a little lighter - my Hellcat is noticeably less weight, even full-mag to full-mag - but other than that, I've got 1,000s of rounds through it with zero issues and I love it!

I wonder , did they improve the trigger on the mod 2 ? I like my mod 1 in .45acp but the trigger wasn't to good on it.

I dislike the Mod 2 version for two reasons:

1. No interchangeable back strap.
2. The grip texture feels slippery in my hand.

I also prefer my 4 inch model to the 3.3 inch version. And I have no problems securing the grip safety when shooting the gun.

XDs reviews are nice and all that...but why is there never anything on the XDe pistols? Are they the red headed step children of SA?

I remember one article about the XDe. One. There are several on YouTube.

It's like they don't like their own gun. My 3.3 is a fantastic shooter and carries perfectly.

Never had the original, but I love the 3.3 Mod2 in 9mm. One of my more comfortable guns to carry with very light clothing.
