I bought the shield first. It has been flawless and super accurate. I just picked up the XDS and it is plagued with problems right out of the box. Failure to return to battery, failure to feed, light primer strikes...mag locking back with rounds in it. Fuuuuuuuu.

I have a lot of other springfield guns and they have all been exceptional. I am really disappointed with my XDS. I'll give it another range trip before I send it back to SA. Hopefully, they make it right.

I'm sticking with my shield.
