This is the no-frills workhorse version of the classic XD platform, built around the proven .45 ACP cartridge. The Essentials Package strips away extra accessories and keeps what matters: a reliable, accurate semi-auto with a 4-inch barrel, a 13-round magazine capacity, and Springfield’s trademark grip safety. Whether you are a seasoned shooter or a first-time .45 owner, this Springfield XD .45 ACP Service Model Black Essentials Package delivers consistent performance without the premium price tag of loaded models.

Features & Specs

The Springfield XD .45 ACP Service Model Black Essentials Package comes standard with a black Melonite finish that resists holster wear and corrosion. The grip texture is aggressive enough to keep your hand locked in during rapid fire, yet comfortable for all-day carry. Below are the key specs you need to know about this .45 ACP Service Model:

• Caliber: .45 ACP (13-round magazine capacity with extended base pad)
• Barrel length: 4 inches with hammer-forged rifling and a fully supported feed ramp
• Overall length: 7.3 inches; weight unloaded approximately 27.5 ounces
• Safety features: grip safety, trigger safety, and an internal firing pin block
• Sights: low-profile 3-dot sights with a dovetail front and rear (steel)
• Frame: black polymer with an integral accessory rail (Picatinny-style)

One feature that stands out on this Springfield XD .45 ACP Service Model Black Essentials Package is the loaded chamber indicator, which gives you a tactile and visual confirmation. The slide is machined from forged carbon steel, and the trigger pull breaks cleanly at around 5.5 to 6.5 pounds out of the box. You also get the famous XD grip angle, which points naturally for most shooters.
