The XD-M® 4.5" .45 ACP is an exceptional large-bore striker-fired polymer-framed defensive handgun. Featuring three distinct safety systems along with a crisp smooth trigger sporting a remarkably abbreviated reset, this is the rugged defensive tool that shoots like a target pistol. A full length one-piece guide rod keeps the gun running smoothly, and generous slide gripping groves both front and rear make the gun easy to run.
