Springfield received my firearm on September 11. I was advised today their is still no solution and still no ETA on the return of my firearm. I asked about a refund and was told no decision has been made on potential refunds. I hope this is resolved soon. I really liked my XDS as a primary concealed carry/back up gun. Springfield has served us well in the past, I hope we can continue to trust them. I hope they are not fixing all of the FFL firearms first.

Because of a medical issue, I missed the FedEx return window and can not return the piece via the password and login I was given. I was directed to support and a confusing instruction on the alternated FedEx return “process”. Can I use UPS instead? The FedEx process is a nightmare for me to use.

I was told by a dealer they are fixing all the FFL’s XDS’s first so if your a privite owner expect a long wait.
I just spoke with Springfield. It’s a 30 day turn around from the date Springfield receives the gun. They say they are sorry but that’s all you get.
Calling does no good – they have an answering machine and after calling almost two weeks ago have not heard from them. Had to get on the website and do it that way. Still waiting for shipping label.
