The Pearce Grip PGXD+ Grip Extension transforms the handling characteristics of Springfield XD pistols by adding crucial gripping surface and improved control. This polymer extension addresses the common issue of limited grip real estate on compact and subcompact XD models, providing shooters with enhanced stability and comfort during extended shooting sessions.
What Makes This Different
Unlike generic grip sleeves or tape solutions, the PGXD+ features precision-molded construction that matches the XD's factory grip texture and contours. The extension integrates seamlessly with the pistol's existing grip profile while adding exactly one inch of additional gripping surface. This measured approach ensures improved control without compromising concealability or holster compatibility that larger grip modifications often sacrifice.
Key Features
- Adds 1 inch of gripping surface for enhanced control and stability
- Precision-molded polymer construction matches factory grip texture
- Compatible with all Springfield XD models except .45 ACP variants
- Durable black finish resists wear and maintains appearance
- Maintains holster compatibility with most existing XD holsters

The PGXD+ delivers measurable improvement in shooting performance across multiple disciplines. Competition shooters benefit from increased grip stability during rapid-fire strings, while concealed carry users gain better weapon retention without sacrificing concealability. The extension's polymer construction withstands temperature extremes and moisture exposure common in duty and outdoor environments. Range sessions become more comfortable as the additional surface area distributes recoil forces across a larger grip area.
