On the XD-E, the manual safety can be swept downward to decock/drop the hammer safely.
And Langdon is a true expert in using these DA/SA-punch in pistols.
AYOOB:Ernest, why the XD-E?
Kudos to Springfield for thinking out of the box in offering it.
Its a good, reliable pistol, shaped to fit a lot of peoples concealed carry needs.
AYOOB:Tell us about your XD-E Tactical Edition modification package.
Its simply easier now to shoot double action.
AYOOB:What about external modifications?
LANGDON:One of our most significant improvements, I feel, is the hammer spur.
It…doesnt lend itself to appendix carry comfort.
We have ground the spur off as far as we can.
We are changing the sights.
It comes with…fiber optic front and plain rear Novak.
The Novak doesnt lend itself to one-hand malfunction clearing, though, so we went with Ameri-Glo CAP sights.
These are good night sights, and work in a broader range of lighting conditions in my opinion.
Were not changing the grip.
We will explore stippling or Talon grips in the future.
Were Cerakoting the slide in sniper gray and adding a third magazine.
The gun normally comes with two.
These mags have the nine-round extended, and eight-round flush and eight-round with pinkie finger extension.
We include all three.
AYOOB:What models are you offering?
LANGDON:We are selling complete guns or will modify the customers gun.
Retail for ours is $738 for 9mm and $768 for .45, shipping free.
On a customers own gun, the only conversion package right now is the trigger work for $130.
Shipping depends on where were shipping to, but we will quote to the customer.
We have new LTT XD-E pistols in stock, and can ship in a couple of days.
It will take about two weeks to turn around a customers gun.
AYOOB:Ernest, thank you for your time.
