Springfield XDM OSP 9mm 4.5 Full-Size Optics-Ready Desert FDE Pistol with Threaded Barrel
Overview
The Springfield XDM OSP 9mm 4.5 full-size optics-ready desert FDE pistol with threaded barrel represents a refined evolution of the proven XDM platform. Chambered in 9mm, this full-size handgun combines the durability of a forged steel slide with the lightweight ergonomics of a polymer frame. The desert flat dark earth (FDE) finish provides corrosion resistance and reduced glare in field conditions. Designed for shooters who require immediate optic compatibility, this model features an optics-ready slide cut that accepts over 20 red dot footprints without requiring adapter plates. The factory-threaded barrel allows for direct attachment of suppressors or compensators, making it a versatile choice for both range use and tactical applications. Springfield Armory engineers have tuned the trigger with a crisp break and short reset, while the match-grade barrel ensures consistent accuracy at extended distances.
