Rob Leatham & Tom Gresham review the XD(M)® 4.5 .45ACP pistol, one of the best handguns available.
Gun owners are always requesting versions of .45 handguns. So when Springfield Armory unveiled XDM in 9 and 40 millimeter, customers began asking when the XDM 45 Compact would be released. By popular customer demand, Springfield Armory unveiled the XDM 4.5 .45ACP, and gun owners are already calling it one of the best handguns on the market. This gun uses the same magazine as the existing XD, making it a top handgun option for those who already own other guns. The XDM 45 Compact also comes with a grip safety and a passive trigger safety with replaceable backstraps for increased flexibility.
