XDm

This week, I finally got my hands on a long-overdue sample from the all new XDM Elite line up of guns. The Elite series is pretty much everything you would add from the aftermarket to an XDM, configured at the factory, and with a price that won’t break the bank.

These new XDm Elites are everything that they suggest in the name. I was able to get my hands on all four new additions in order to test them and develop an opinion on them that I can now share. Here’s your first look into the XDm Elites: The trigger is superb, they proved extremely reliable, the grip safety is redesigned and consequently more comfortable and reliably activated, and the magazine capacity is bigger than it has ever been, and so on.

We recently had the opportunity to attend an event where we received hands-on training from no less than Springfield Armory’s Rob Leatham.

For those who want all the advantages of a red dot on their pistol, Springfield Armory is answering the call early on by offering a new version of their time-proven and hugely popular XDM pistol. It is called the OSP for “Optical-Sight Pistol.”
