The Springfield XDM 45ACP 5.25 Competition Black 10-Round Model is a precision-engineered pistol designed for shooters who demand exacting accuracy and reliable performance in a .45 ACP platform. Built on Springfield Armory’s proven XD(M) frame, this competition-ready model features a 5.25-inch barrel and a full-length target sight radius to facilitate fast, precise shot placement. The black Melonite finish provides corrosion resistance and a low-glare surface for competitive and defensive use alike.

Overview

The springfield xdm 45acp 5.25 competition black 10-round model represents a dedicated competition-variant sidearm from Springfield Armory. It combines a match-grade barrel with an adjustable rear sight and fiber optic front sight for rapid target acquisition. The polymer frame includes interchangeable backstraps to accommodate different hand sizes, and the integral accessory rail allows for mounting lights or lasers. This model ships with two 10-round magazines and a paddle-style holster, making it suitable for USPSA, IDPA, or range practice. The trigger pull is consistent at approximately 5.5 to 6.5 pounds with a short reset, reducing split times between shots.

Features & Specs

• Caliber and Barrel: .45 ACP with a 5.25-inch hammer-forged steel barrel featuring a 1:16 right-hand twist. The barrel is fully supported for reliable feeding of a wide range of hollow point and full metal jacket ammunition.
• Sight System: Fiber optic front sight with a fully adjustable rear sight for windage and elevation. The 5.25-inch slide length provides a 7.3-inch sight radius for enhanced precision at distance.
• Frame and Finish: Black polymer frame with three interchangeable backstraps (small, medium, large). The slide and barrel feature a Melonite finish for hardness and corrosion resistance. Overall dimensions: 8.3 inches length, 5.6 inches height, 1.2 inches width. Unloaded weight: 32 ounces.

Additional specifications include a forged steel slide with front and rear cocking serrations, a loaded chamber indicator, and a grip safety that must be fully depressed before the trigger engages. The trigger guard is undercut for a higher grip position, reducing muzzle rise during rapid fire. The magazine release is ambidextrous, and the slide release is oversized for competition manipulation. The springfield xdm 45acp 5.25 competition black 10-round model also includes a Picatinny rail on the dust cover for mounting tactical accessories.

Who It’s For

This pistol is intended for competitive shooters participating in USPSA Single Stack or Limited divisions, as well as IDPA shooters seeking a .45 ACP option. It also suits defensive shooters who prioritize a full-size frame with a longer barrel for increased velocity and sight radius. The 10-round magazine capacity makes it compliant with states such as California, New York, Massachusetts, and others with magazine restrictions, while retaining the full grip length of the standard XD(M) design. Law enforcement professionals or civilian shooters who train regularly with .45 ACP ammunition will appreciate the reduced recoil impulse provided by the 5.25-inch barrel and the polymer frame’s weight distribution. The springfield xdm 45acp 5.25 competition black 10-round model is not recommended for concealed carry due to its full-size dimensions, but it excels as a range pistol or competition sidearm.
