Springfield XD, originally known as the HS2000, is a Croatian made auto-pistol designed for military and police use. The NRA named the springfield XD 45ACP "Handgun of the Year" in 2006.

The Springfield XD, called "glock wannabes" by pissed of Glock owners who realized they bought an inferior gun, has improved upon the many design flaws of Glock pistols. The fully-supported chamber of the XD will prevent the possibility of the famous Glock "kaboom" in which bullets explode in the chamber, destroying the Glock and leaving the shooters hand mangled (youtube "glock kaboom"). Also, the internal and external safeties of the XD, will prevent the well known phenomenon of "Glock Leg" where the gun mysteriously discharges a bullet into the owners leg (youtube "glock leg"), also known a plaxico leg.

In reality the Springfield XD is a better shooting, more accurate, far more safe, version of the glock, that also looks twice a nice as the old-fashioned Block design. I personally have 20,000+ rounds through my XD with ZERO jams or malfunctions. Wish I could say that for my old Glock!!
"Ohh my god!! Did you see that guy's gun blow up in his hand?? Holy shit!! He's fucking bleeding, call an ambulance!!"

"He must have been shooting a Glock, thats not possible with a Springfield XD!!"
