Features & Specs

The XDS Mod.2 is a refined evolution of Springfield’s proven single stack design. The 3.3-inch barrel keeps the overall length short while still providing enough velocity for effective .40 S&W ballistics. The fiber optic front sight stands out as one of the best factory sights we have seen on a compact pistol, using a bright red or green rod that pulls your eye naturally to the front. The grip features Springfield’s GripZone texture with distinct zones that provide traction without being abrasive against bare skin. The trigger on the Mod.2 has a crisp break and a short reset, making follow-up shots faster and more controlled.

• Caliber: .40 S&W with a 3.3-inch hammer-forged barrel for durability and accuracy
• Fiber optic front sight for rapid target acquisition in varying lighting conditions
• Single stack magazine capacity: 7+1 rounds with two magazines included
• GripZone texture with high-hand design for reduced muzzle flip and better control
• Loaded chamber indicator, striker status indicator, and integral trigger safety

Who It Is For

This pistol is built for the concealed carrier who values a balance of power and concealability. If you have been carrying a 9mm and want to step up to the .40 S&W for its additional energy on target, the XDS Mod.2 in 40 is a natural choice. It also suits shooters with smaller hands who struggle with double stack grips but still want a serious defensive caliber. The slim single stack profile makes it ideal for appendix carry or deep concealment. Law enforcement officers looking for an off-duty or backup gun will appreciate the familiar manual of arms and the reliability Springfield Armory is known for. If you train regularly and want a pistol that rewards practice with consistent accuracy, this Springfield XDS Mod.2 40 S&W 3.3 single stack pistol with fiber optic front sight is a platform that grows with you.

• Concealed carriers who prioritize a slim, lightweight profile for all-day carry
• Shooters transitioning from 9mm to .40 S&W for improved terminal performance
• Those who want a fiber optic front sight as a factory standard, not an aftermarket add-on
