Note: Message from one of our customer regarding installation of the Tactical Recoil Control Thumb Rest for XD pistol on a XD sub-compact pistol Just a little info for you that you may want to let people know about. On the Springfield XD Sub-Compact, the grip safety pin has a ridge on it in which the spring catches on. When pushed out with the replacement trigger housing pin, it causes the grip safety pin to snap. Mine had snapped in several pieces. I believe that the spring is not made well enough which caused this. It broke very easily. I think you may want to put this on you site and possible let the XD owners know about the spring. Nothing wrong with your product at all and I'll leave positive feedback. Just a poorly made spring. I'll bring my gun in to get a new spring as it's only a month old and I'll also write to Springfield to let them know about the cheap spring they put in..
