How to load a Springfield XD-9 handgun with a chambered round

See how to load a Springfield XD-9 with a chambered round. Springfield Armory is the weapons makers responsible for such polymer-framed, striker-fired firearms that some would say are better than the Glock, but that's just a matter of opinion.

The Springfield Armory XD-9 is chambered in 9mm and easily field stripped quickly without tools, and loading magazines is just as easy, but loading the weapon to full capacity is probably the easiest thing you can perform. Just watch this video to see how to load the pistol with a full magazine and one round chambered. This works the same for any other handgun you may own.

Always treat every gun as loaded and remember to exercise finger control, especially with a live round in the chamber.
