Springfield XD 45ACP Compact Model Black California Compliant

The Springfield XD 45ACP Compact Model Black California Compliant is a handgun that balances firepower with everyday carry practicality. This polymer-framed, striker-fired pistol delivers a proven .45 ACP round in a package designed for concealed carry without sacrificing the control you need on the range. For California shooters looking for a reliable, state-compliant option from Springfield Armory, this model checks the necessary boxes while keeping the familiar XD ergonomics you expect.

Overview

Springfield Armory built the XD series around the idea of giving shooters a natural point of aim and a comfortable grip angle. The Springfield XD 45ACP Compact Model Black California Compliant takes that platform and trims it down for easier concealment. You get a 4-inch barrel and a shorter grip frame that still holds 10+1 rounds of .45 ACP, making it a solid choice for those who want significant stopping power in a manageable size. The black finish on the slide and frame keeps it low-profile, and the California compliance ensures it meets the state roster requirements without aftermarket modifications. This is a no-nonsense firearm for shooters who value simplicity and reliability.

Features & Specs

This compact model retains the core features that make the XD line a favorite among defensive shooters. The grip texture provides a secure hold even with sweaty hands, and the loaded chamber indicator gives you a tactile and visual confirmation of the status of the chamber. The trigger pull is consistent, and the reset is short enough for quick follow-up shots. Below are the key specifications and features you can expect.

• Caliber: .45 ACP with a 10-round magazine capacity for California compliance
• Barrel length: 4 inches with a stainless steel, hammer-forged construction
• Overall length: 7.3 inches with a weight of approximately 28 ounces unloaded
• Sights: Dovetail front and rear with a low-profile design for snag-free draw
• Grip: Polymer frame with a textured bi-tone finish for positive control

The Springfield XD 45ACP Compact Model Black California Compliant also includes a grip safety, trigger safety, and a firing pin block. These passive safeties give you peace of mind during holstering and carry. The magazine release is ambidextrous, making it accessible for left-handed shooters as well. The finish on the slide is a durable black melonite that resists wear and corrosion.

• Frame: Black polymer with a Picatinny rail for mounting lights or lasers
