Was able to make a quick trip to an indoor range today after clearing out from a substantial winter storm. You can certainly use this to post on your site if you would like. Received the pistol back as promised Nice fit & finish on the Dawson adjustable sights & really help with precision shooting. This, coupled with the trigger job, had me punching the center of the X-ring with just 1 move of the rear sight! WOW -- what a difference these modifications make to bring the XD up to "competition ready". Thanks, Scott, for the great job! This shooter is a happy camper!

Hi Scott,
I just wanted to thank you for working on my (2) Springfield XD45s. I
just got them back today via Fed EX and I plan to check them out at the
local range this weekend. I was particularly impressed by the way you
were able to get smooth, consistent trigger pulls with both my 5" and
4.25" versions, as well as take up the slack in the trigger re-set,
something that the stock XD really needs. The very short turnaround
time was also very impressive, as I am accustomed to waiting months for
work to be performed by other gunsmiths.
Have a great Thanksgiving!

Scott,
I received my XD9 back from you at 10:15 AM, and had it on the range shooting it at
1:30 PM. Ya, I know. What toke me so long to get there! Hey, afterall this is Miami
and the traffic stinks.
I believe it was Jackie Gleason who use to say, "How sweet it is". The trigger job
you did rivals some of my $4000 race guns. Nice job! I can't wait to shoot it in an
IPSC match on Sunday.
I'll have another one for you shortly. My dealer hasn't shipped it yet!
Thanks again,
Ed M
Scott,
I will have to say that this is a great product and would recommend it to any
shooter. It reduced trigger travel tremendously, and the new weight is great for
a crisp break. Everything dropped right into my Xd 45 with no problems. I
always like my Xd but never really cared for the long trigger pull, so I never
carried the weapon because I entrusted my 1911 with my life. I went to the rang
to test everything with my friend who is a former Navy Seal and I quote him when
he said " Wow, its been along time since a pistol has surprised me. This guy
must know what he is doing." It has done everything you stated it would and
when we drained 300 rounds through the weapon with only the sounds of rounds
hitting steal down rang, I told my buddy that my 1911 maybe put in the safe for
good!
Thank you for such a Great Product!! -

Mr. Springer,
I'm not sure if you will remember working on my X D this last week. But, I have got
to take this time and write this Thank You note.
Because!
I had a very good stage at the National Match this week, the statge was 18.
Fore a little back-ground.
I was contestent 325 in Production. Though you will not be able to veryfiy this
statement due to my not making the minor power factor and there-fore not recieving
an offical score. I will tell you that I was un-offically 1st on that stage with a
hit factor of 5.14.
This I attribute to your timely excellent work on this firearm. This XD 9mm worked
with your parts due to your Craftmenship on each and every Stage. Not one jam, Not
one miss-fire, Not one lite primer strike. Through the rain in the mud and yes even
in the sunsine. On each and every Stage it did it's work.
Thanks!

Scott,
I finally went to the range following the trigger job you performed and
realized what a difference it made. The new Dawson Precision night sites
are also great. My groups at 30 feet are amazing (easily within 2 inches).
That is much better than before (embarrassing 6 inches). I am brand new to
pistol shooting but this gun is so easy to shoot well. I can shoot it as
well as or better than my Kimber CDP. My only complaint is that I will need
a new holster as the new DP front site is a little higher than the factory
site and makes it difficult to get the gun out of the Blackhawk holster.
Thanks for your good work.
David
Scott,
Just wanted to say thank you. Trigger is nice a smooth, 2 clicks to
the left and I was zeroed. Hope to send you some more business soon.

Hi Scott,
A few months ago you did some work on my XD-9 (trigger, sights, etc). I've
had a chance to put a couple thousand rounds through it and this gun is
great. You did a fantastic job on the trigger and when I let other people
shoot it they can't believe that a "plastic gun" can shoot so well.
I like it so much I'm going to get another one after the first of the year.
Of course, I'll be sending it to you so you can do your magic on it.
Thanks again for your excellent work.

Hi Scott,
Just wanted to thank you for the advice. I put the parts in tonight.
I put in the sear and then installed the trigger bar, started by filing
the forward stop first so that the striker released properly, and so
that I had enough upward movement on the firing pin block to release it.
Then I filed the rear stop until the trigger safety released cleanly,
and there was a bit of take up. I seem to have just a little over 1/4" of travel overall, half of what I had to start with. Also, the sear
seems to break quite well. I like the feel of this set up much better
than the stock one, as I have small hands and this will make things much
easier for me. Will not be able to shoot it until next monday, but I am
sure it will be great. When I have the cash I will no doubt be putting
this stuff in both of my other XD's, and perhaps my wife will want it
for both of hers as well. Time will tell. Thanks again for all your help
on this, much appreciated!
Have a great weekend. -

Scott,
After wrangling with Fed Ex to get my XD (they told me they called and my office
wasn't open so they were not going to deliver it... I let them know that was not
possible since I was IN my office at 9am, and the phone number they had was my cell
and I received no calls... so I picked it up at their depot), I now have pistol
happily back in hand.
I am SO HAPPY with the work thus far. I can't wait for range time. Thank you so
much for the exceptional level of craftsmanship and care you took with my pistol.
with respect and gratitude
-Scott
Hi Scott-
Took my XD 9T out to the range and all I can say is "Wow!" The trigger is
so different. I rented a standard XD tactical to compare the two. The best
word to describe it is 'crisp.' My shot placement was noticeably improved
although I don't know if it was because of the trigger, your sight
installation, or the factory cleanup that you did. Probably all three with
the added confidence that the work you've done has made my XD the best it
can be. What made the service over the top was that you answered all of my
emails so promptly. I've passed out your card at a couple of Springfield
dealers and let a couple of guys dry-fire the trigger. They were really
impressed - and even more so when I told them how much I paid - and the
short turnaround time. The only problem is now I can't blame the gun! I
will definitely ship my CZ-75 SP-01 to you when I decide to do some work on
it.
Feel free to put my email into your well deserved testimonials section.

Scott Springer,
I have just recently purchased your drop-in Springer Precision trigger kit and trigger bar for my Springfield XD 40 Tactical. I shoot this gun on occasion in USPSA Production Division. These two items are awesome my production gun shoots just as good if not better then my two STI Edge 40 Limited guns with 2.5lb trigger pull. The trigger action is fast, crisp and precise as I need it. The pre-travel and reset is awesome. I would highly recommend these two items to anyone who's trying to improve the function of their gun (XD). Scott, thank you for your great service and assistance. Keep up the great work. Best Wishes,
Victor M, Louisiana
Scott,
I just wanted to take a moment and say thank you for developing a fantastic trigger kit for the XD series pistols. I recently purchased the kit and a set of Tru Glo night sights. I received the parts yesterday and fit the sear and trigger bar last night. I installed the sights today and took the gun to my police department's range. After shooting approx. 150 rounds, all I can say is WOW!!!!!!!!!
Your parts have made the gun feel like a totally different gun. One of the problems I have always had with the XDs is the trigger reset. The trigger now feels more like a pivoting 1911. In my department, we can carry just about anything we want to as long as it is at least 9mm. When I started, more than half of the department carried a 1911. Now, we have about 10-12 people carrying the XD series including some of the diehard 1911 shooters. I am planning to get the word out on your trigger kits for the other XDs.
Keep up the good work and thanks again for a great product. -

Scott,
We got Caleb's gun back today and we went out this evening to shoot after he finished his homework. He had no trouble shooting it. The reach for the trigger was perfect and he handled the recoil very well. Thank you for a fine, quality job with attention to who was going to be shooting the gun. I really appreciate it. Caleb said he really enjoyed shooting it. It was a little dark for video, but later this weekend when we go shoot again, I'll get some video to send you so you can see your work for him in action
Once again, thank you very much.

Scott,
Thanks for the great service on my XD9 Tactical. The competition trigger is fantastic and the envy of the club. It's impressive that I shipped you the gun on Monday and I was shooting a PPC event on Friday and a steel plate shoot on Sunday of the same week! Nicely done! Dave
got my xd 45 back last friday,put about 200 rounds through it over
the weekend.cant say enough about the work you did,the tru-glow sights are
great,big improvement over the factory sights,and the trigger work is awsome,i
really like the xd pistols my only bitch was the trigger,but now problem
solved,really tightned up my groups,ive recommended the xd's to a lot of my
friends and now i'll be recommending they send them off to you for trigger work.
could'nt be happier , thanks again , Troy
Scott,
I took the XD to the range last evening. Your work, completed in 4
days including shipping, has produced a weapon that rivals my Springfield
1911 (Black Stainless™ PX9152L). Just like the 1911, I am able to place 1" groups @ 15 yards with no problem. When I first purchase the 5" XD 45 ACP I was disappointed with groupings and consistency but you have cured that problem. The trigger job is superior and the Dawson Sights are just great. I will be sending you another 4" XD in the very near future. ~Sean
Hi Scott,
Received my XD45 back today. You did a really nice job on it. The trigger
pull is much much better and the sights are a big improvement over the
stock.
Thanks for the great job and the great customer service,
Tim
than a speeding bullet. You will getting more work from myself and friends
in the near future

Scott,
Thanks Rob
I just wanted to drop you a line and say THANKS for the great service. I picked up my XD yesterday evening and was at the range today.. What a difference! I'm certainly NOT a marksman, but this was one of my best sessions at 10 yards I've had!
Thanks again!! Jack
