Default Shield 9mm & XDs 45 Range Report

I went to a new indoor range in Layton Utah across from Sam's Club.

I had no idea they opened 2 months ago. I was very impressed with their indoor range. If anyone lives in the area I would recommend it.

XDs 45 Impressions:

No I did not purchase an XDs 45. I talked the range master into trying 6 rounds through a rental at no charge.

At 7 yards I was able to group all my shots in approx. 2 inches. (See target)

The kick was manageable but I would not want to shoot a 100 rounds in one range visit. No question my wrist would feel it.

The trigger was comparable to my Shield and I could grip The XDs 45 with the flush magazine with all 3 fingers like my Shield.


Shield 9 mm Front Sight Drill:

I included a target where I did some real life front sight shooting. In the drill I would bring the gun up from my chest sweeping trigger and when I made eye contact with the front sight I pulled the trigger once and then lowered the weapon and repeated the drill 7 times.

I felt good every shot (see target) would be a good shot if my life or a loved one depended on the placement.
