Features & Specs

This package is built around the proven XDM striker-fired action with a short-reset trigger system. The 3.8-inch barrel is cold hammer-forged from Chrome Moly steel and treated with a Melonite surface conversion for corrosion resistance and extended service life. The slide is machined from carbon steel with a two-tone finish: a black Melonite frame contrasted by the natural stainless slide. The polymer frame incorporates a replaceable backstrap system to accommodate varying hand sizes. Sighting systems consist of a low-profile three-dot setup with a white outline rear and high-visibility front post. The “Compliant” designation indicates the inclusion of a loaded chamber indicator, a manual safety, and a magazine safety mechanism, meeting specific legal requirements for certain jurisdictions.

Who It Is For

Competitive shooters in production divisions may also consider this package for its balance of barrel length and weight distribution. The bi-tone finish appeals to those who prefer a visual distinction between slide and frame for rapid slide manipulation in low-light conditions.
