Overview

The Springfield XDM 40 S&W 3.8 Compact Bi-Tone Compliant Essentials Package combines a stainless steel slide with a black polymer frame, offering corrosion resistance and a professional aesthetic. Chambered in .40 S&W, this pistol utilizes a locked-breech, striker-fired system with a short-reset trigger for rapid follow-up shots.

This compliant model ships with reduced-capacity magazines to meet legal requirements in restrictive jurisdictions.

Features & Specs

• Caliber and Action: .40 S&W semi-automatic, striker-fired with a consistent 5.5 to 6.0 pound trigger pull. The trigger travel is short and features a positive reset, enabling faster engagement on successive targets.
