Overview

Springfield Armory has a strong reputation for building dependable pistols, and the XDS line is a prime example of their commitment to a slim, single-stack design. The springfield xds 4.0 single stack 45acp black (manufacturer sample) is built around a forged stainless steel slide and a high-handled polymer frame. It holds 5+1 rounds of .45 ACP, which is impressive given its slim profile. The manufacturer sample designation means this firearm was used for display or sales training, so it may have minor handling marks but is fully functional with all factory warranty support intact.

Features & Specs

Let’s break down what you get with this pistol. The 4-inch barrel gives you a bit more accuracy at distance while still being concealable. The single-stack design keeps the grip thin, and the textured grip surface gives you a secure hold even with sweaty hands. Here are the key specs:

• Caliber: .45 ACP with a 5+1 capacity, single-stack magazine
• Barrel length: 4 inches, forged stainless steel with Melonite finish
• Sights: Low-profile, dovetailed front and rear with a tactical racket rear sight for press checks
• Trigger: Springfield Armory’s standard trigger with a crisp break and short reset
• Safety: Grip safety plus a trigger safety for added carry confidence

The springfield xds 4.0 single stack 45acp black (manufacturer sample) also includes an integral accessory rail for lights or lasers, and the slide has forward cocking serrations for easier manipulation. It ships with one magazine and a padded carrying case.

Who It’s For

This pistol is a solid choice for the shooter who wants a .45 ACP that doesn’t print through a t-shirt. If you are looking for a dedicated concealed carry piece that packs the authority of a .45, the springfield xds 4.0 single stack 45acp black (manufacturer sample) fits the bill. It is also a great option for someone who wants a backup gun for the nightstand or truck that is still slim enough to wear under a jacket. The manufacturer sample price makes it more accessible for shooters on a budget who do not want to compromise on build quality. It is not a range toy for high-volume shooting given the single-stack capacity, but for everyday carry and defensive use, it is hard to beat.
