Hey Goatboy, FYI....
Tried an "experiment" with my XD yesterday...field stripped it and left it oiled pretty wet (more than normal) and picked up 100 rounds of steel cased...no FTF problems..not a single one. Only thing that was different with those rounds was a few hesitations when racking the slide as it came forward like it was getting hung up...one time I had to force it forward but it DID feed. Then ran 150 brass rounds through it like butter...BTW .40 cal 4 inch....
Also, I've been shooting my new Sig .40 and Kimber .45 alot last week and had real messy groups with the XD yesterday even with brass. Not the guns fault, just me getting used to the "sloppy" trigger of the XD again...strange day...shooting low and left like I did when I first started shooting. I really had to concentrate to hit center target.
