Is their cases. I have two XDs cases (along with the contents that came in them) that I'm converting over to mag carriers. I need a few more cases now.

The case my Range Officer came in is pretty nice. I especially liked the " Illegal in California" sticker.
The pistol is pretty good too.

Cases are a dime a dozen.
They are still a shit smelling failure. |

I'm unclear what the use case is there. I guess it's one way to store mags.

I'm of the opinion that they got my TRP right too.

I always hated those cases because they were so much bigger than everything else and didn't stack well.

Yes Springfield Armory, not the commercial garands.

They've done a lot of things right. It's their politics they got wrong.

Old good Springfield Armory before new bad Springfield Armory was good because it made guns that won wars not guns that tell you where to grip the gun in giant print

I wish the XDs would accept 1911 mags.

Their customer service is top notch. They got that right.

Springfield Armory's Garands were a shitshow from the start and were dropped immediately thereafter. Why do you think you can't buy them new anymore? More than one exploded. You're thinking of the original Springfield Armory - not the commercial entity that stole their name after the armory was shut down in 1968. |

I'd be worried about the slippery texture on that case OP. Needs more GRIPZONE!!!

Tell me more about this. I'd heard the SAI M1 rifles felt like they were made of cheap pot metal, so I bought a real one from CMP. Some of the SAI ones actually went kaboom? |

As a guy who schleps them around to gun shows I wholeheartedly disagree. The foam the put in the top falls out constantly along with the allen wrenches and extra front sight inserts. PITA.
Springfield cases are the freaking worst. Give me a rock island or sig case any day. |

Was this the problem they were having with firing out of battery because the interruptor bridge in the receiver was cast in the wrong place? That's all I'm aware of. Quote HistoryQuoted:
