The Springfield XD-S Mod.2 in 45 ACP delivers full-power performance in a slim, concealable package that measures just 1.0 inch wide. This single-stack pistol combines the stopping power of the 45 ACP cartridge with modern safety features and enhanced ergonomics for everyday carry.
What Makes This Different
The XD-S Mod.2 features Springfield's GripZone texture treatment, providing 25% more surface contact than standard grip textures. The fiber optic front sight and low-profile combat rear sight deliver faster target acquisition than traditional three-dot systems. Springfield's Ultra Safety Assurance trigger system includes grip safety, trigger safety, and firing pin block for passive protection without external safeties to snag during draw.

Field performance centers on the 3.3-inch barrel's ability to generate 850+ fps velocities with standard 230-grain loads. The dual captive recoil spring system manages felt recoil effectively for follow-up shots. Weather resistance comes from the Melonite finish and polymer frame construction, maintaining function in temperatures from -40°F to 140°F.
