The Springfield Armory XD-M Compact 13rd .45 ACP Stainless Steel Magazine with Sleeve is an essential accessory for enhancing the performance and versatility of your Springfield XD-M and XD-M Elite .45 ACP pistols. Constructed from durable stainless steel, this 13-round extended magazine ensures reliability and longevity in a variety of shooting conditions, making it perfect for both personal defense and recreational use. It features a magazine sleeve designed for backstrap size #1, allowing for a smooth transition from a compact to a full-size grip, effectively increasing your firearm's capacity without sacrificing its compact nature. This thoughtful design caters to those who appreciate the balance of a compact platform while enjoying the added benefit of extra rounds. The magazine is fully compatible with Springfield's XD-M Compact models, ensuring a perfect fit, though it requires the removal of the magwell for proper fitment on XD-M Elite Compact models. This is particularly advantageous for current production .45 ACP XD-M Elite pistols, which come with Backstrap #1 installed from the factory. The sleek silver finish not only enhances the aesthetic appeal but also provides an additional layer of protection against wear and tear, making this magazine a reliable companion for any shooting enthusiast. With its thoughtful design and robust construction, the Springfield Armory XD-M Compact 13rd magazine is a must-have for those looking to optimize their shooting experience.
