Last night I decided to do the old 25 cent trigger job on a couple of my Glocks.
So whats this .25 cent trigger job? Does it work on other pistole's like SA XD?

It just involves polishing some parts (connector, trigger bar, firing pin, firing pin safety) to make the trigger pull a little more smooth. It isn't a huge difference, but is worth the short time it takes in my opinion. Basically you're just smoothing over any metal to metal contact areas.
You could certainly do the same for an XD, although I don't have one and am not personally familiar with them. If you're comfortable detail stripping it, just break it down and examine it. See what you think. The key is to understand that you're only trying to polish the metal - not reshape it. You don't want to round off any edges or anything like that. Just make it smooth.. nothing more.

I read the title of the post and thought to myself "Did he hit it with a sledgehammer, or drop it off a 25 story building, I gotta see this". Same here.

A glock is about the simplest gun I've ever seen.. easy one to learn/practice on.

A pessimist would say you have to many guns.  An optimist would say you have to many guns.  A realist would say you can never have to many guns.  Beaware of the man who has but one gun...
I know what you're saying, but I pity the man who has but one gun. Anything mechanical can break, I want redundancy!

I've just never seen or heard of a glock that needed modifying, and yes I am fully capable of making that same mistake:)
