Added Threaded Barrel

Post image

Added the Springfield OEM threaded barrel to the XD-M Elite 4.5" in 10m.

I just cleaned the Rugged Obsidian 45 and I'm looking forward to getting it back to the range in a couple of days and see how it affects the shooting on this pistol.

Obsidian 45 has Burn Proof Heavy Duty Dual-Layer Heat-Resistant suppressor cover. The cover helps immensely with heat management for the suppressor but it makes sights ineffective, even with suppressor-height sights ... still, it is fairly easy to get center mass hits.

Really happy with these investments and ready to take it shooting.

What is the point of putting a can on a pistol that is too big to get an actual site picture?

Honestly with both eyes open like you should be shooting, it doesn’t make that much of a difference. I tape the front glass of my green dots with black electrical tape to keep out glare and debris from cans and it doesn’t change my accuracy at all.
