It's more than a new set of features, it's about raising your expectations of what a polymer pistol should be.  It's about creating a new standard in value.

Welcome to the all new XD(M)^TM, a perfect blend of design, technology, innovation and personalization.

Design
Moving beyond comfort and fit, Springfield Armory® explores new territory in tactile response. With the introduction of The (M) Factor™, Springfield's reputation in ergonomics, intuitive operation, and handling is taken to a whole new level.

1. (M)odel Contour Frame - The ideal grip angle of the XD® has been carried over to the XD(M)™, but slightly modified contours in the grip will leave you wondering whether you're gripping the gun or it's gripping you.
2. (M)ajor Grasp Slide Serrations - Deeper, longer, and more slide serrations equals a better more penetrating grasp.
3. (M)ega-Lock Texture - The "all-terrain" look of the new XD(M)™ isn't about cosmetics, it's about function.The angle and depth of each contour in the grip has been calculated for maximized control vertically, horizontally and torsionally.

Technology
Advances in manufacturing allow Springfield to take the XD(M)™ series to a whole new level in precision.
With an incredible attention to detail, no handgun company approaches precision engineering like Springfield Armory®. 

1. (M)elonite - Traditional black oxide finishes are a few millionths of an inch thick and offer no corrosion resistance.The rugged Melonite® finish on the XD(M)™ is a salt bath nitriding process that leaves a thick, corrosion-resistant, hard surface.
2. (M)atch Grade Barrel - Rivaling aerospace manufacturing, the XD(M)™ match-grade barrel takes precision manufacturing to a whole new level never available within the firearms industry.
3. (M)inimal Reset Trigger - The new XD(M)™ trigger has the shortest travel than any currently available polymer pistol along with a similarly short reset which keeps you on target with greater ease for faster, more accurate follow-up shots.

Innovations
The same spirit of innovation that fueled the success of the XD® is now captured in the all new XD(M)™ line of polymer pistols. From subtle influences to industry firsts, the XD(M)™ series pushes the boundaries on what a polymer pistol should be.

1. (M)inimal Error Disassembly - Innovation doesn't always happen by adding to a product. Sometimes, it's what you simplify. By removing the need to pull the trigger during disassembly, we've made the process easier and faster.
2. (M)aximum Reach Magazine Release - The modified contour of the new XD(M)™ grip is most evident near the magazine release. Operation of the magazine release is easily accomplished by virtually any size hand without twisting or adjusting from the shooting grip.
3. (M)ega Capacity Magazine - The XD(M)™ is the largest capacity production polymer pistol in both the .40 caliber and 9MM, respectively, accommodating 16+1 and 19+1 rounds.

Personalization
Usually, handgun customization is an after-market decision. With the XD(M)™, you get more personalized choices for a custom fit right out of the case.

1. (M)ould-Tru Backstraps - With our interchangeable backstraps, we've added another level of comfort. Personalize your grip by choosing one of three backstraps for a more custom fit.
2. (M)ulti-Adjust Rail System - A triple-position Picatinny rail readily accepts lights, lasers or other accessories. More importantly, it allows them to be adjusted to the shooter's hand position.
3. (M)ulti-Use Carrying Case - Your total XD(M)™ experience starts the day you open your case. In fact, it starts with your case. This rugged case is as durable as the XD(M)™ it houses and can be re-tasked to protect any number of items from a laptop to multiple XD(M)™ pistols.

The Standards
In 2001, Springfield Armory® set out to show its customers, the firearms industry, and the rest of the world a whole new standard in ergonomic design and available features.
With the introduction of the XD® polymer pistol, they did just that.... 

1. Loaded Chamber Indicator - The loaded chamber indicator allows the shooter to verify visually or by touch, and without a doubt, that there is a round in the chamber.
2. Striker Status Indicator - The shooter can check the striker status indicator by sight or touch to verify the striker is in the cocked position.
3. USA Trigger System™ - The Ultra Safety Assurance USA Trigger System™ guards against accidental discharge from dropping or bumping by locking the XD's trigger in place until direct, rearward pressure is applied.
4. Grip Safety - Allows it to fire only when the shooter has a firm grip on the pistol.
