This is a pistol built for shooters who understand that stopping power doesn't need to come with bulk.

Overview The Springfield XDS 4.0 Single Stack 45ACP Black (Manufacturer Sample) is a striker-fired, single-stack pistol designed around the .45 ACP cartridge. With a 4.0-inch barrel, it splits the difference between a compact carry gun and a service-sized pistol. The black polymer frame and Melonite-finished slide give it a low-profile, no-nonsense look. This is a firearm that prioritizes concealability and control. The single-stack magazine ensures a slim grip, making it one of the most comfortable .45s to carry appendix or strong-side. As a manufacturer sample, you are getting a firearm that was used for marketing or sales purposes, but it functions identically to a standard production model.

The black finish on the slide is a durable Melonite treatment that resists holster wear and corrosion. The grip features Springfield Armory's GripZone texture, giving you a secure hold even with sweaty hands. The trigger is a crisp, striker-fired system with a consistent pull. The low-profile snag-free sights are dovetailed and ready for replacement if you prefer night sights.
