Springfield XDM .45ACP 4.5 Flat Dark Earth (FDE) Essentials Package With Threaded Barrel

When you pick up the Springfield XDM .45ACP 4.5 Flat Dark Earth (FDE) Essentials Package with Threaded Barrel, the first thing you notice is how well it balances in your hand. This isn’t just another polymer-framed pistol; it is a purpose-built defensive tool that gives you the proven stopping power of .45 ACP in a package that doesn’t beat you up at the range. The flat dark earth finish is more than cosmetic — it reduces glare in low-light conditions and gives the gun a distinct, tactical look that stands out in any safe or holster.

The included essentials package means you don’t have to spend extra on the basics right out of the box. You get two 13-round magazines, a paddle and belt holster, a double mag pouch, and a cleaning kit. And with the threaded barrel already installed, you are ready to mount a suppressor or compensator without hunting down additional parts. This is a complete setup for the shooter who wants a reliable .45 ACP that is ready to work from day one.

Overview

The Springfield XDM .45ACP 4.5 Flat Dark Earth (FDE) Essentials Package with Threaded Barrel is a full-size, striker-fired pistol built around Springfield’s proven XDM platform. The 4.5-inch barrel gives you a longer sight radius for accurate shooting, while the threaded muzzle accepts standard 5/8×24 suppressors and compensators. The FDE finish is applied to both the slide and the polymer frame, giving you a consistent, non-reflective surface that holds up well to holster wear and field use. The grip features the XDM’s interchangeable backstraps, so you can tailor the fit to your hand size. The match-grade barrel and forged steel slide ensure consistent accuracy, and the loaded chamber indicator gives you a quick visual and tactile confirmation of the gun’s status.

• Caliber: .45 ACP with a 4.5-inch hammer-forged, threaded barrel (5/8×24 thread pitch)
• Capacity: Two 13-round magazines included with the Essentials Package
• Finish: Flat Dark Earth (FDE) on slide and polymer frame

Features & Specs

This pistol comes loaded with features that make it a strong contender for home defense, range shooting, or duty carry.

The Essentials Package includes a padded carrying case, a double magazine pouch, a paddle holster, a belt holster, a magazine loader, and a cleaning kit — everything you need to start shooting immediately.
