Description Additional Information
 
Low prices on the Springfield Armory XD(M) Elite Target 5.25" 22+1 9mm Loaded Package start at Champion Firearms.

This is a self- defense pistol that has everything a shooter needs-- superior design ergonomics, reliable performance and features that make it easy to use. An even more streamlined compact slide sits atop one of the most natural pointing grip frames on the market.

The frame itself is constructed of a heavy duty polymer whose non- slip texture fits securely in the hand, while not being so abrasive that it chews up skin or concealment clothing. Interchangeable backstraps allow the grip to be tailored to fit your hand.

The XD(M) Elite Target carries over the Government Model 1911 grip angle of the original XD...but with slightly modified contours on the backstrap, frontstrap, on both sides of the frame, as well as in the magazine-release area of the grip. These minor modifications significantly improve the feel of the gun in the hand, and the ability to operate without "breaking" your shooting grip.

The forged steel slide is finished with an extremely corrosion and wear resistant surface treatment called Black Melonite. For those unfamiliar with the process, this is a ferric nitrocarburized case hardening, which diffuses nitrogen, carbon and trigonal nickel directly into the metal, thereby elevating the slide's Rockwell hardness to somewhere between a file and a diamond.

The new META Flat Face trigger provides a consistently short, smooth pull, shot after shot. The trigger geometry has been worked over and the pistol has a shorter reset and take- up. The trigger does not stack and it breaks clean. It also has an articulating safety lever built into the trigger blade. In order for the pistol to fire, direct pressure must be applied to the center of the trigger.

A tactile and visible loaded-chamber indicator is located directly behind the barrel. The device allows a shooter to confirm ready status without having to first retract the slide.

While it's always best to perform a visual safety inspection before handling any firearm, this feature is convenient in emergency situations. When suddenly awakened in the middle of the night by the sound of shattering glass, it's easy to reach over and instantly confirm that the Springfield has a round chambered simply by running your finger over top of the indicator.

In other words, if you feel the cam sticking up, then there's one in the pipe and the pistol's effectively in condition one (or zero, once you disengage the grip safety). If lying flat, the chamber is sitting on empty and it's time to lock and load.

There's also a secondary system called the striker indicator pin that can be found on the back of the slide, which protrudes outward if the pistol is ready to fire. While this device will not indicate if there's a round chambered, it will at least allow you to quickly determine if the striker is cocked.

The Springfield feeds from a double stack, high capactiy magazine that, in the case of the 9mm XD(M), holds 22 rounds. Three of these magazines are included in this package.

Another user friendly feature is an ambidextrous magazine release. It's not just reversible like other brands, but works simultaneously well from either side.

When shooting hot self- defense loads, greater case support is achieved through the use a fully supported 3.8" ramped hammer forged match grade barrel, which is then Melonited for increased strength and durability. Dual slide serrations offer a firm gripping service and make it easy to charge the slide or safely preform a "press check" (pulling the slide far enough back to visually ensure a round has been chambered).

The XD(M) Target is extremely accurate, weighs in at 29 oz. and includes one of the best lifetime warranty's in the industry. A dual recoil spring captive full length guide rod assembly provides softer recoil and adds longevity.

Cleaning is painless with the pistol's easy take-down system. Once the slide is locked to the rear, a downward turn on the release lever allows the gun to be quickly disassembled without the need to be dry- fired, as with its predecessor the XD.

Overall, the Springfield XD(M) Elite Target is a reliable, versatile 9mm pistol that offers excellent firepower power and is easy to conceal.
