The grip safety on this Springfield XD sub-compact 9mm Defend Your Legacy Series pistol (10-round model) is intuitive: it disengages only when you have a proper firing grip, adding an extra layer of safety without a manual thumb safety to fumble with. The slide is topped with a low-profile three-dot sight system that is easy to acquire in low light. The frame texture is aggressive enough to lock into your hand but not abrasive against bare skin during concealed carry.

• Magazine capacity: 10 rounds flush-fit (compliant with many state restrictions) or 13 rounds extended.
• Grip safety, trigger safety, and striker block safety provide three independent passive safeties.

Who It’s For

This pistol is built for the everyday carrier who refuses to compromise on shootability for the sake of size. If you are looking for a Springfield XD sub-compact 9mm Defend Your Legacy Series pistol (10-round model) that disappears under a t-shirt but still gives you a full four-finger grip with the extended magazine, this is your gun. It is also an excellent choice for new shooters who want a manageable recoil impulse and a simple manual of arms. Experienced shooters will appreciate the consistent trigger and the ability to run defensive drills without worrying about the gun printing. Law enforcement officers seeking an off-duty or backup piece will find the sub-compact dimensions and 10-round capacity a solid fit.

• Perfect for concealed carry under light clothing; the flush-fit 10-round magazine reduces overall height to just 4.75 inches.
