    ...too much shit to list.
    I should add one footnote.
    I would still recommend only NGK or Desno plugs, and would further recommend the dual grounded on a NA motor, but not "required" by any means. Those dual grounded plugs will last you 60k no problem and the NGK BKR5EKB-11 really aren't that expensive from O'reilly instead of the Desno's from the dealer.

    I am a fan of Xd's in general. I will say though, they have one nuance that I've caught with them. I'm far more akin to 1911 grip safeties. 1911's are very ergonomic and form fitting. The grip safety on the XD is...a button (for a lack of a better word). I've drawn with them before and I'm fairly consistent. But I've had two "oops" draws on timed drills where I didn't get my palm completely seated on the safety and it didn't go bang.
    I'm just trying to say, practice makes perfect.

    Do the dual pronged ones require any gaping or do they come pregapped?

    @scrunner:
    Geez i read your post and was like fuarrkkkk until jberry corrected you.


    Hmm maybe ill go get the dual pronged ones and keep the current plugs as spares.

    They come pregapped, I'd suggest measuring with a feeler gauge no matter what. But keeping the other plugs as spares is a good plan. I have a spare set as well.

    I never said there was an issue with them.
    But when you train with one style of pistol and try switching to another, not all firearms are created equally.

    when i go from small to big and xd to xdm and to TRP Operator full rail, it can throw me off, especially when I end on the TRP because if you even think about putting your finger at the trigger it goes off. Basically, its a hair-trigger. And once you shoot that one, you are ruined for life. Bull Barrel 1911's are such a treat
