The Springfield XD-S XDS4006 delivers serious stopping power in a remarkably slim profile, making it an ideal choice for concealed carry without sacrificing performance. This single-stack .40 S&W pistol measures just 0.9 inches wide while maintaining the reliability Springfield Armory is known for. The stainless steel construction provides enhanced corrosion resistance and durability for daily carry conditions.
What Makes This Different
The XD-S stands apart from bulkier double-stack pistols by offering a truly concealable frame width without compromising on caliber effectiveness. The .40 S&W chambering provides 35% more stopping power than 9mm alternatives while the single-stack magazine keeps the grip manageable for smaller hands. Springfield's forged steel slide and stainless steel finish deliver institutional-grade durability in a package designed specifically for civilian concealed carry.
