- The new version of the Springfield Armory XDm series is here: The Elite. This one is the Tactical OSP version. This has tall sights (blackout), a threaded barrel with thread protector, an extended mag well and higher capacity mags which hold 22 rounds! AND, the slide is optics ready for a red dot!

Awesome video. I just purchased one. One thing you didn’t mention. I get it that it’s a loaner pistol, is that SA give you a free optic mounting plate. There is a coupon in the paperwork, you go to the SA website. Give them the model and serial number plus what optic your going to use. I chose the Holosun 507c. Around 2 weeks later SA gave me a tracking number. Less than a week later I received the plate. It uses the original screws. Plug an play installation. Nothing fits better than Manufacturers parts. Perfect drop in install including the optic.
Thank you for the overview of this particular gun that looks great as a tactical firearm
Bought my first gun ever about half a month ago. Taurus G3 and she’s great so far! Then not too long I got a PSA AR-15 Pistol and oh man is SHE GREAT and now seeing that my arms dealer has this XDM I am meeting him later today for it and can’t wait!
Really enjoyed this XDm Elite comparison series. I hope Springfield Armory got you something special for the work done in the Vids. Springfield certainly got my business after watching this series.
Hammer Striker and Coffee! Good start to my day. Thanks for the great content as always.
Thank you.
yeah I agree
Wow. Love this gun. I think I just found my first gun purchase. Thanks for the review.
Did you buy it bro? I’m thinking about this one
Just traded in my shield for this yesterday and it’s 👌👌
Did you get 3 red dot adapter plates with yours?
Wyo Moto yeah
My 1st baby! I love it! And I came right to this video to learn about my baby more! Thank you!
So. I bought an XDM 10 5.25 last week thinking that would be the last gun I’d buy for a while. I went to the local gun store looking for ammo...and walked out of the store with the black version of this. 😃
Excellent, articulate video. Great to see and hear that you respect others properly.
My husband and I,watch all of your informative videos.
God bless you.
Thank you.
Nice review as always. Thank you. I have yet to fire an XD series pistol. Thanks for sharing!
Thank you. If you ever get a chance to do so, you will probably like it - especially the XDm.
I got mine yesterday thanks for the vid.
SA needs to come out with an updated full-size 10mm as part of the XDM elite series. the features are worth it.
Solid Video. I really like this new Elite line. I also agree with you on those blacked out sights. For me, I would prefer night sights (no outline back w/ outlined tritium in the front) or at least fiber optics.
Thank you. If I owned this gun I would likely put dots on them. If they were standard height I would swap 'em out for fiber-optic day/night sights.
@@HammerStriker Why not do both ? You can get Tritium suppressor height night sights to replace these "space fillers".
Thanks for this review!
Powder river precision has 2.5, 3.5, and 4# set ups for triggers as well as alum triggers. For the trigger snobs out there. Mines coming for the XDm elite. Ran one on my idpa xdm5.25 and it changed the gun entirely. And springers got comps and baseplates. And bar sto barrels ready
I got mine and is a awesome gun, thinking to but another one
Thanks for fully demonstrating the new trigger. That's really all I needed to see as a longtime XD/XD-M/XD-E owner.
All of my cases and holsters go in the closet. I'm glad they pass on the savings and let me buy my own.
Same here slim
I have both a xdm and xde 3.3 9mm. I carry the xde everywhere I go, its never ever had a hiccup
Wonderful review! Thank you so much for the extra info on the mags! Believe it or not I desperately needed that information right now!
Thank you again!
Thank you, I am happy it helped.
great review
Looks very nice.
Never knew they had polymer rails in the back... Learn something new everyday! I really don't think it would be an issue, but I prefer a slide that's on ALL steel rails!
Hammer has an XDm that is quite elderly, needed all new springs but the rails look like new. Gun runs like new now too.
@@HammerStriker I said in my comment that I didn't think it would be a problem, I would personally just prefer steel slides like most manufacturers provide. It's good to know that they do indeed hold up though! 😁
I didn't take your comment as negative in any way, there was nothing negative anywhere in it. I just happened to have an example of a high-mileage one.
@@HammerStriker Sorry if I came off as defensive in any way... It's awesome that you have had good success with the Springfield Armory pistols! I used to own one but I sold it because I didn't shoot .45 that much. Anyways, thanks 4 the video! 👍
Thanks for the video. I feel that one should also comment on how smooth the slide pulls back.men and women that do not have the strength have an issue with that alone. Thanks
I just got one last month and I like it a lot. This is my first Springfield non-1911. Possibly my last handgun purchase. I have the M&P 9 in 3 sizes, SD40VE, CZ40, Glock 19, and a few Springfield 1911's. I do love this full size XD-M Elite. I got mine without the threaded barrel, and with the better sights.
Waiting for this gun to be in stock. My .45 acp tactical xdm is a tack driver.
Best strike-fired trigger on the market.
I had mine for about 400 rounds when the firing pin striker started getting hung up. I pulled the striker and it was filthy and gummed up. I had never had it out before. I thought I used a reasonable amount of solvent and applied small amount of ballistol via a q tip on the usual spots. Would an upgraded striker help avoid this?
Nice review
Thank you.
Nice pistol hammer striker keep it up 👍
Thank you.
Love dat mag magwell reminds me of a 2011
Can you fit oem 20 round magazines in the pistol with large magwell?
Perfect. Thank You
did it come with the OSP adapter plates for various red dot sights?
It’s a great trigger
"hard wall like the glocks" haha.. glock's triggers are about as crisp as wet bread.
Exactly. The only glocks I've ever shot that have been stock and shot crisp were 0. Aftermarket trigger in it, then yes, it's better. 🤣
Do you know if this gun can be bought from the factory in this configuration only without the threaded barrel?
Not currently but that may change as they see that a lot of people would like that option.
They improved the striker saftey lever but just use the term "meta trigger" for marketing purposes. But that improvment, coupled with the over travel stop on the trigger are over 1oo dollars worth of upgrades from powder river precision on og xdms....and ive seen the black 4.5elite for under 500...springfield did well with this one.
I can't tell if the gun in the vid is OD Green or FDE
I have a Sig P320 and this XDM ELITE Springfield is my dream gun.
Can you put the barrel from a XDM non OSP in it?
Those rear polymer rails concern me. Good review overall.
Can anyone recommend Tritium sight replacement options? Thanks!
Just picked this up from palmetto for $450 on clearance/Black Friday sale. Couldn’t pass up that price
grip reminds me of cz100
Wouldn't mind a comparo w/ the amazing Canik TP9SF Elite Combat for around the same price!
I have heard a lot of good things about the Canik and won't dispute what I have heard. However, I did handle one at a local shop and the squarish back by the beavertail hits the first knuckle of my thumb rather than blending into my hand. I would end up not liking it simply because it will rub there, I had another gun (Kahr CW45) do that and it is gone.
Rather than get one and end up giving what is likely a great quality gun a less than stellar review while nursing a blister, I will pass on the current generation. I will check periodically to see if that has been revised over time.
Good review. I'm curious, how would you compare this to the Canik TP9 Elite Combat?
I get asked a lot about the various Caniks but have not had a chance yet to review one. It is on the list of guns to review if the opportunity presents.
How too put it on semi auto?
How come the previous (non-elite) came with a second, non threaded barrel, for a cheaper cost, and this one does not?
Depends on the deal you got. My xdm only had one match barrel but came in a hard case with dense foam, paddle holster, double mag holder and mag loader
Can you use 17rnd magazines in this? NJ laws here. Only 17rnds permitted
I suspect you mean 10 rounds (most places that have limits, limit to 10) and yes it can use 10 round magazines designed for the full size XDm (you may have to remove the magwell to clear the baseplate).
22 rds can we get a 50 Rd mag
How many yards you shooting? Lots of muzzle rise
Try the pt92 compared to the xdm . I was set on the xdm for my wife. The pt92 is a much better pistol in my opinion. The pt92 has less muzzle flip. I do like the rounds the xdm holds. However you can still buy extended mags for the pt92.
can anyone speak on the recoil on this model? how does it compare to say a canik combat elite (i've heard they have less recoil for poly's)
XDm's in general handle recoil very well, I found it very controllable. An XDm can even make the nasty, twisty recoil of .40 nice. Unfortunately I have not fired a Canik to compare it to but hopefully another viewer can fill in that info.
@@HammerStriker thanks!
Everyone would love the magwell if reloading under fire. Trust me.
Springfield does not shipped with the OSP plate adapter and the wrench to removed the cover. You have to go to their website and request your adapter plate and it takes them about 7 weeks to get them to your door. They don't even shipped this with a cleaning brush and a decent bag.
Mine came with the three adapter plates and wrench and also front sight has red fiber optic in it
Everything is good
Any holsters out there for these?
It should fit most XDm holsters that fit the other full size guns as long as the channel at the top has clearance for the suppressor height sights.
I love dat grip safety .. my 3yro can't shoot it
Can you do this gun compared to the fn 509 tactical please?
Unfortunately the XDM Elite was a T&E gun (Loaner from Springfiled) which have since returned and do not have available. I picked up the 509 Tactical after sending the XDM back.
@@HammerStriker ok! Thanks anyway. You do great videos!!
Perfect
Good, Thx
What holster fits this gun ??
Unfortunately I did not test it in any holsters while I had it. Whether or not you put a red-dot in it will make a big difference. You also have to clear the tall front sight, most IWI holsters have a taller front sight "tunnel".
Just bought one and I am in like with it very much. Will be doing some "Gangsta stuff" 🤣🤣😂😂
Too bad they couldn’t color match the mag well. That would have been a nice touch.
Nah black looks dope
@@the_rippla7678 no, it looks like a cheap after thought.
Any of the XDs or XDMs and elites are just rugged tuff gun that can take a beating and keep on ticking, and they are a good looking pistol , I’d put them up against any other polymer gun , just my opinion
The xdm elite is great ..it needs better sights ..
looked like he was shooting hot 10mm not 9mm from that recoiling in the beginning
The grip safety is no big deal but ppl sure like to fuss about. I have a xdm 45 4.5, I hate the trigger. On a scale itl break at 5.5lbs to 6.5lbs. Other then the trigger it a good reliable gun. Rather then mod it ill wait for the elite to come out in .45
The sights are set up so you can co align with an optic, has nothing to do with using a suppressor.
those stock sights are just aweful, why are they so awkward and tall on this?, NM, for supressor clearance
Imma gangsta and i just found out i been shooting wrong this whoke time 😔
I put white dots on mine
Look at that guide lod
Rather get my xdm elite than a Glock still
Get stippling with the vemon ..
The gangsta hold. Low purchase.
That kick tho 😒
Snappy much?........sheesh
Too much recoil
Love everything about this gun except "made in Croatia" and the recoil. Give it a metal frame and make it here please. I do not care if it is a giant and its heavy. Leave it for the bigger guys.
Croatia makes a better handgun than we do. Hence the contract with Springfield... foh
xd is fully made in Croatia by hs produkt arms company.it doesn't belong to Springfield but it makes guns for them and uses sa distribution in usa.
I’ve shoot a lot of striker fire guns but buy no means am I a expert but I have shoot 10s of thousands of rounds and these xdm elites from the 3.8 compact to the tactical are some of the bests shooting guns I’ve ever shot,
Okay I'm going to start off real nice by saying that you showed up in my recommended videos in UA-cam because I love springfield.xdm. And I got 2 of em im 10mm one of them is an elite one of them is an original now this is where we're going to get a little critical man....... I handle my 10 mm better.... at the range then you do with a 9 mm.... because the way it looks in your video it looks like you're shooting with a 10 which means you are not managing recoil well I would suggest you dig deep into some pistol training.... now this video is old and people continue to learn it would take me 20 minutes to teach you so I don't know if you have advanced and I am not calling you an amateur or a novice..... I call you Semi-Pro you're almost there but you got to go to Mike Glover's fieldcraft survival and check out his pistol training and learn to get up underneath that trigger guard with your pointer finger with your left hand and try to twist the gun almost out of your hand and you can learn some of the finer techniques of that from that guy from Warrior Poet Society I'm just teaching you what I've learned and I thought that I knew everything about pistol shooting and then I continue to learn and advanced my techniques for years and years and years and years and I am just simply sharing this with you you should be able to handle that 9 mm way better than you are.
And I need to work on my periods and punctuation marks.😆 but I'm being lazy and I'm talking to my microphone.
And I'm really not trying to be mean once again but I watched that video of you shooting a couple of times man and you have to tighten that recoil up.... that thing is flip-flopping in your hands and ways it should not be.... you're returning two 0 well.... and going back on target fast which shows that you got good accuracy and form in your hands but you're not trying to twist that gun out of your hand and try to create leverage with your elbow and all of that and if you do you're going to feel that gun tighten up in your hands and way it never has before I promise you!!!!! Go watch those videos from those dudes one of them's a professional shooter and I think he might have been military or law enforcement or something and the other guy's a Navy SEAL.... and he knows his s*** and teaches it well.
I really do like your gun reviews. But it doesn't matter you never show yourself in the video's.
I have been in some. When YT first started giving us problems with our videos and other stuff; the Kahr challenge, and some other outdoor ones. I try to keep it about the gun
