personally i wouldnt care if the XD had 5000 rounds through it (which isnt that much, but most people shoot 500-1000 rounds a year MAX) I would still choose the XD over the tarurs. Wayy too many people have bad luck with those guns from what i can tell, not to mention the trigger is pure torture on most of them according to most (Tarurus). Some of the tarurs are good, but they are soooo unpredictable in terms of quality that a steer clear of them. They are known for the same problems in their 1911s, some are good guns for the money, but lots are pieces of crap.

Springfield has the best customer service in the industry, so thats a plus.

Google a function and safety check list for the XD, that way u can check all the features on the gun before u buy.

Gotta remember those guns should last 30,000-45,000 rounds before needing an overhaul. so chances are you have plenty of life left in the XD. Just visually inspect it very well.
