Springfield XDM 45ACP 3.8 Compact Black Compliant Essentials Model

The Compliant XD(M) 3.8” Compact Essentials Package is the smallest of the XD(M)® line, but it’s by no means the least. It boasts the same superior ergonomics, reliable performance, and features that make larger XD(M)®’s easy and intuitive to use in a slightly abbreviated package. And you’ll be amazed at how fun it is to shoot. This firearm is not compliant in the state of California.

The XD(M) 3.8” Compact .45ACP has a 3.8 inch barrel mated with a shortened compact frame. When combined with the versatility of XD(M) Gear X-Tension magazines, the XD(M) 3.8” Compact .45 is ready for daily carry or a day on the range. Put in an X-Tension magazine, and you have a 10 round full-sized .45ACP pistol. Use the flush-fitting 9 round magazine, and you have a Compact.

Like all XD(M)’s, the XD(M) 3.8” Compact comes with three interchangeable backstraps, dovetail sights, mega-lock frame texturing, an ambidextrous magazine release, a multi-position frame rail, and a match grade barrel. You’ll also find all the safety features that make the XD(M) a safe pistol in responsible hands.

Your total XD(M) experience starts the day you open your case. In fact, it starts with your case. The rugged Multi-Use Carrying Case is as durable as the XD(M) it houses and can be re-tasked to protect any number of items from a laptop to multiple XD(M) pistols.

Springfield XDM Features

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.

(M)ould-Tru Backstraps: With the interchangeable backstraps, Springfield has added another level of comfort. Personalize your grip by choosing one of three backstraps for a more custom fit.
(M)ulti-Adjust Rail System™: A triple-position Picatinny rail readily accepts lights, lasers or other accessories. More importantly, it allows them to be adjusted to the shooter’s hand position.
(M)elonite®: Traditional black oxide finishes are a few millionths of an inch thick and offer no corrosion resistance. The rugged Melonite® finish on the XD(M)® is a salt bath nitriding process that leaves a thick, corrosion-resistant, hard surface.
(M)atch Grade Barrel: Rivaling aerospace manufacturing, the XD(M)® match-grade barrel takes precision manufacturing to a whole new level never available within the firearms industry.
