The OSP (Optical Sight Pistol) configuration allows direct mounting of popular micro red-dot sights without plate adapters, while the threaded barrel accommodates suppressors or compensators.

Overview

The Springfield XDM Elite 9mm 4.5 OSP Pistol with Threaded Barrel is a full-size, striker-fired semi-automatic pistol that bridges the gap between competition-ready features and everyday carry reliability. The 4.5-inch barrel provides a longer sight radius for improved accuracy while the threaded muzzle ensures compatibility with sound suppressors or muzzle brakes. The slide is machined from billet steel and features an optics-ready cut that accepts the Springfield Micro Reflex Sight footprint, as well as adapter plates for Trijicon RMR, Shield RMSc, and other popular red-dot systems. The frame incorporates a high-hand beavertail, an integral Picatinny rail for lights or lasers, and interchangeable backstraps to accommodate varying hand sizes. The trigger system offers a crisp break with a short reset, contributing to faster follow-up shots. This model is factory-tested and backed by Springfield Armory’s lifetime warranty.

Who It’s For

The Springfield XDM Elite 9mm 4.5 OSP Pistol with Threaded Barrel is designed for shooters who require a versatile, optics-ready handgun with a factory-threaded barrel. It is an excellent choice for competition shooters in USPSA or IDPA divisions that permit red-dot optics, as well as for law enforcement professionals or private security personnel seeking a duty-grade sidearm with suppressor capability. Home defense users will benefit from the 22-round magazine capacity, the integrated rail for a weapon light, and the ability to mount a red-dot sight for low-light target acquisition. Enthusiasts who prefer a suppressed shooting experience or wish to test different muzzle devices will find the factory-threaded barrel eliminates the need for aftermarket barrel replacement. This pistol suits intermediate to advanced shooters who appreciate a match-grade trigger and a slide cut that supports multiple optic footprints without adapter plates for certain models.
