Overview

As a purpose-built defensive pistol, the springfield xdm 3.8 40 s&w full-size black pistol bridges the gap between compact carry guns and full-length service pistols. The 3.8-inch barrel allows for a shorter slide than a standard 5-inch model, which improves balance and reduces felt recoil, while the full-size frame accommodates a double-stack magazine for high capacity. Springfield Armory’s forged steel slide features a durable black Melonite finish that resists corrosion and wear, and the barrel is hammer-forged for accuracy. The pistol ships with two magazines, interchangeable backstraps, and a paddle holster, making it ready for immediate use. Every component is engineered for longevity, from the stainless steel guide rod to the match-grade trigger.
