    From Precision's facebook page.
    Springfield Demo Days. I'll have more details this evening but the short story is we just received two cases full of demo guns from Springfield. This Friday and Saturday, Oct. 3 & 4, we will have Springfield representatives and guns in the store. These will be live fire guns that YOU can try out. We will not charge a range fee and the ammo will be $1 for 10 rounds per each gun you want to try.

    Wonder if they'll have a M1A?

    They will probably have several examples of the Croatian Specials that have Springfield written on them.

    I'm well aware the xd started as the hs2000 but it doesn't negate it as a quality pistol. Also I remember when I could get glocks in the 300's so inflation happens. Also marketing and importation costs money.

    They had 2 of the M1A rifles - one was a scout with a red dot optic, the other was a high end long rifle with iron sights.
    Both shot well, but the full length rifle was a blast to shoot.
    $1 for 10 rounds of .308! Can't go wrong with that.

    The Springfield reps were very knowledgeable, and have decided to stay in town one more day.
    They'll be doing the demos all day tomorrow (Sunday)

    If all you're shooting is the Springfield demos, Precision waived the $15 range fee
    They had about 25 different pistol models
    From what I can remember

    9mm - EMP, range officer, XD, XDM, XDS, XDS 4"
    .40 - XD full, XD compact, XDM 5.25
    .45 - 4 different 1911's, XDS 4", XDM, 2 different XD's

    No, the lack of quality does that.
