one more thing to add, try squeezing the trigger with the meat of your finger NOT the crease (knuckle) . this seemed to help my accuracy and reduce the felt trigger pull.

I have an XD 40 Tactical and couldn't be more happy with a handgun.

For everything you ever will need for it check out this guy.

Also go to the pistolsmithing link on that site and check out Canyon Creek, Rich does an awesome trigger job on the XDs, I have not had mine done yet, but it will soon be done.

For everything you could imagine being talked about for the XD check out this forum board.

I have the Stainless steel guide rod in my XD and the 22lb spring, made one heckuva difference in recoil/alot faster to get back on target as well. Also put a set of Trijicons on my XD and love them as well.

trigger pull doesnt make that big of a difference if you are used to what you are shooting, where do you live? id be willing to meet up with ya so I can show you that i can squeeze off rounds just as fast and accurate as just about anyone can with their SA auto.

For a tactical gun like he has he should practice with a full finger on the trigger. This gun is intended to stop aggression and not to put a small group on the paper down range. In a crazy situation you don't want to slip off the trigger even if that means you shoot the aggressor slightly to the right or left instead of center mass.
