The XD(M)® 3.8” Full-Size 40S&W pistol from Springfield Armory® sets the standard for what a polymer pistol can be. The XD(M)® has everything you want and need in a pistol – superior ergonomics, reliable performance, and features that make it easy and intuitive to use. The XD(M)® 3.8” Full-Size is the perfect pistol for those who want full-size performance in a slightly shorter package.
The XD(M)® 3.8” Full-Size 40S&W mates a 3.8” barrel with a full-sized frame. This means you’ll get the handling and capacity you’d expect from a standard sized pistol, but with a shorter top end for easier carry. The XD(M)® is packed with features. The three interchangeable backstraps mean that no matter what size your hand, the pistol can fit it perfectly. Mega-lock texturing will keep it secure in your grasp, while the dovetail sights align with ease and the minimal reset trigger breaks crisply and cleanly. And when you do send a round downrange, the match-grade barrel will direct it with industry-leading precision.
Usually, handgun customization is an after-market decision. With the XD(M)®, you get more personalized choices for a custom fit right out of the case.
This is a great gun ... period! I am impressed with Springfields quality and this is my 2nd SA gun. I have an older XD 9MM subcompact which is also a great gun. This SA XDM .40 is very ergonomic and extremely accurate for me. I can easily handle the recoil of the 40 caliber bullet with this gun, much more so than other 40 caliber guns I have tried. Originally, I wanted a Glock 23, but that gun tore up my hand and did not feel very good or manageable. Now, I do like Glocks, and in particular the G19, so Im not knocking them. I just found the SA XDM to be a much better shooter in this caliber. I have not had any issues with the XDM: no FTE, FTS, not one problem!! And it comes with everything you would need: mag pouch, holster, backstraps, great case ... you're set for IDPA. Side note: I will be getting a G19 soon though!
