GENESEO, ILL. –Springfield Armory is proud to announce the XD-M Optical Sight Pistol (OSP) in 10mm.

Power is a matter of perspective and the all new XD-M OSP in 10mm delivers both in our most potent and versatile platform. Optics ready out of the box, the XD-M OSP in 10mm ships with three adapter plates to accept today’s most popular red dot optics.

This optics-ready pistol features a threaded barrel and factory milled slide, allowing the operator to choose the optic and suppressor or muzzle device that fits their needs.

The 5.3” hammer-forged, Melonite® treated, threaded barrel comes with a thread protector, and the suppressor-height sights co-witness with your choice of optic, allowing the iron sights to be used through the optic if necessary. The short-reset trigger has a minimal trigger break for quickly putting accurate rounds on-target.

For those who love the power of the 10mm round, the XD-M is an ideal platform to manage recoil and provide a soft-shooting experience. The full-size grip frame with Mega-Lock grip texturing provides a secure fit in your hand, and the three interchangeable backstraps allow the shooter to customize the grip to their preferred fit and feel.
