Overview

This sub-compact variant retains the XD’s signature ergonomics, including a comfortable grip angle and positive palm swell, allowing for rapid target acquisition and consistent shot placement.

Who It’s For

The Springfield XD 40 S&W Sub-Compact Black (Compliant) is designed for the civilian concealed carrier who demands a balance of power and portability.
