I’ve used a base XD-E. It was sorta reminiscent of a poly P239. Will be interesting to see the feedback on the LTT version.

I have a LTT Beretta 92 Elite and have installed a couple of their “trigger job in a bag” kits on Beretta 92s. They make good stuff!

All in how much you want to pay but I think that's a bit much for a Springfield.

I agree too much money. You can buy a XD cheaper

Add the night sights and trigger job and it seems reasonable. Plus an extra mag. It will replace a Langdon PX4 Compact Carry as my EDC if it's even close to what the Beretta is.This message has been edited. Last edited by: dc54,

Picked up my Langdon XDE today. Nicer Trigger than stock. Smooth DA and crisp SA. The SA breaks further back after reset, but not bad. The sights are easy to pick up. I’ve found I can get a full grip with the flush fit mag so it should conceal easily. Almost identical to my Px4 compact and P239, just much thinner. Fits in stealthgear holsters for the Px4. If I shoot it well and it’s reliable, it will make a great aiwb gun. Hopefully will get to the range this weekend.

I placed the gunsmithing order today to send in my “back of the safe” XDE. I’ve been waiting for two years for Galloway to do something and decided to just go with LTT. Love my LTT PX4!

Don’t expect it to be as good as your LTT PX4, but it’s still nice. Side by side they are similar, but the PX4 stacks less and breaks a bit further forward. I have 3 PX4s. LTT carry, compact carry and 45. Needless to say, i’m a big fan. Looking forward to carrying the skinny cousin.

Took my Langdon XD-E to the range. Surprisingly little recoil. Accurate at the distance I was shooting. The trigger breaks very far back, but is easily managed. I did have 1 light strike that fired on the 2nd Trigger pull. I also had a couple failures to return to battery. No issues shooting a variety of carry ammo. I prefer shooting my PX4 Compact Carry, but the XD-E is a dream to carry. A few more range sessions and it will probably be my choice for aiwb. I did choose the 12# mainspring when I ordered it.

I've had mine for a little over a week, 400 rds. of 147 and 124 gr. Blazer Brass with no issues. No self defense ammo yet. I like it, easy to rack, good sights, levers are low profile. LTT isn't going to let anything out of his shop that doesn't work. I have the 12# hammer spring too, nice DA.
