Released for 10/10. Not sure if this is a dupe. Couldn’t find a thread. Anyway.

It'll be interesting to read/see the reviews. Part of me just fundamentally hates XD's but 10mm is always interesting, if not tempting.
Just what those people need.
Think for yourself. Question authority.
10mm XD + SERPA = Chlorine for the gene pool?Originally Posted by orionz06
The 10mm is a good round for a very small number of applications, and the exact wrong one for all the others. It's been experiencing a resurgence of late, which I hoped would lead to the development of some more functional ammo choices, but so far that hasn't happened, with the possible exception of the new 200 grain Gold Dot.
The product page says the new XD was tested with 10,000 rounds of 10mm Hydro-Shok, which is much like bragging that you tested a new pickup truck by driving around with a 50lb bag of play sand in the bed.
Coming soon to a Fobus holster or Nylon sack worn by Bubba at your local Wal-Mart...

It's not like the typical XD 10mm buyer is actually going to SHOOT the thing.

I don't really understand why I wouldn't just buy a Glock 20 if I wanted a good polymer-frame 10mm pistol.
The Springfield XDM 10mm almost looks like a more ugly Glock if you squint thru your eyelashes... or if you have glockcoma and can't see very well.

They may not even know where or how to hold it without an easily identifiable Grip Zone
