Watch as Rob Leatham shows gun owners how simple it is to field strip and reassemble the XD-S® pistol.
All guns need to be cleaned. Luckily, gun owners have found that the XD-S polymer pistol in .45 ACP is incredibly easy to disassemble, field strip and then reassemble. After you strip this gun and put it back together, you will slip the barrel back into breech and pull the big spring forward until it locks into the barrel lug. You will then place this back into the slide. With such easy cleanability, gun owners have called the XDS .45 one of the best pistols on the market.
