Description

The Springfield XD-M Elite 10mm delivers serious stopping power in a refined package built for demanding applications. This full-size pistol combines the proven XD-M platform with 10mm Auto chambering for maximum terminal performance. Law enforcement professionals and serious shooters recognize the XD-M Elite series for its enhanced ergonomics and match-grade barrel accuracy.

What Makes This Different

The XD-M Elite platform elevates the standard XD-M with a match-grade barrel, enhanced trigger system, and aggressive slide serrations for positive manipulation under stress. The 4.5-inch barrel optimizes 10mm ballistics while maintaining manageable overall length at 7.6 inches. Springfield's Mega-Lock texturing provides secure grip control during rapid fire sequences, surpassing conventional checkering patterns.
