I'm glad you like what you did to your Glock. My point was only that Glock paid for lots of engineering in recent times to make their ideal balance. Most aftermarket parts are like 2 guys and a mill. Testing budget is severely limited.

You might need a new gunsmith! XD sights probably aren't reusable, but they aren't impossible to work with. Now, I don't like TFO's for the XD. Whoever decided they would only use half of the dovtail width for a sight twice as long as normal was nuts. It is in there now!

I thought my Kahr's super short dovtail was worse.
