The New Springfield Armory XDm Elite Tactical OSP 9mm 

Awesome video. I just purchased one. One thing you didn’t mention. I get it that it’s a loaner pistol, is that SA give you a free optic mounting plate. There is a coupon in the paperwork, you go to the SA website. Give them the model and serial number plus what optic your going to use. I chose the Holosun 507c. Around 2 weeks later SA gave me a tracking number. Less than a week later I received the plate. It uses the original screws. Plug an play installation. Nothing fits better than Manufacturers parts. Perfect drop in install including the optic.

Wow. Love this gun. I think I just found my first gun purchase. Thanks for the review.

Bought my first gun ever about half a month ago. Taurus G3 and she’s great so far! Then not too long I got a PSA AR-15 Pistol and oh man is SHE GREAT and now seeing that my arms dealer has this XDM I am meeting him later today for it and can’t wait!

Really enjoyed this XDm Elite comparison series. I hope Springfield Armory got you something special for the work done in the Vids. Springfield certainly got my business after watching this series.

So. I bought an XDM 10 5.25 last week thinking that would be the last gun I’d buy for a while. I went to the local gun store looking for ammo...and walked out of the store with the black version of this. 😃

Hammer Striker and Coffee! Good start to my day. Thanks for the great content as always.

My 1st baby! I love it! And I came right to this video to learn about my baby more! Thank you!

Excellent, articulate video. Great to see and hear that you respect others properly. My husband and I,watch all of your informative videos. God bless you.

SA needs to come out with an updated full-size 10mm as part of the XDM elite series. the features are worth it.

Never knew they had polymer rails in the back... Learn something new everyday! I really don't think it would be an issue, but I prefer a slide that's on ALL steel rails!

Thank you for the overview of this particular gun that looks great as a tactical firearm

Thanks for fully demonstrating the new trigger. That's really all I needed to see as a longtime XD/XD-M/XD-E owner. All of my cases and holsters go in the closet. I'm glad they pass on the savings and let me buy my own.

Solid Video. I really like this new Elite line. I also agree with you on those blacked out sights. For me, I would prefer night sights (no outline back w/ outlined tritium in the front) or at least fiber optics.

Nice review as always. Thank you. I have yet to fire an XD series pistol. Thanks for sharing!

Powder river precision has 2.5, 3.5, and 4# set ups for triggers as well as alum triggers. For the trigger snobs out there. Mines coming for the XDm elite. Ran one on my idpa xdm5.25 and it changed the gun entirely. And springers got comps and baseplates. And bar sto barrels ready

Best strike-fired trigger on the market.

I just got one last month and I like it a lot. This is my first Springfield non-1911. Possibly my last handgun purchase. I have the M&P 9 in 3 sizes, SD40VE, CZ40, Glock 19, and a few Springfield 1911's. I do love this full size XD-M Elite. I got mine without the threaded barrel, and with the better sights.

I got mine and is a awesome gun, thinking to but another one

I got mine yesterday thanks for the vid.

Just picked this up from palmetto for $450 on clearance/Black Friday sale. Couldn’t pass up that price

Wonderful review! Thank you so much for the extra info on the mags! Believe it or not I desperately needed that information right now! Thank you again!

Waiting for this gun to be in stock. My .45 acp tactical xdm is a tack driver.

Thanks for this review!

great review

Everyone would love the magwell if reloading under fire. Trust me.

"hard wall like the glocks" haha.. glock's triggers are about as crisp as wet bread.

Looks very nice.

Thanks for the video. I feel that one should also comment on how smooth the slide pulls back.men and women that do not have the strength have an issue with that alone. Thanks

Nice pistol hammer striker keep it up 👍

They improved the striker saftey lever but just use the term "meta trigger" for marketing purposes. But that improvment, coupled with the over travel stop on the trigger are over 1oo dollars worth of upgrades from powder river precision on og xdms....and ive seen the black 4.5elite for under 500...springfield did well with this one.

Love dat mag magwell reminds me of a 2011

Nice review

Perfect. Thank You

Any of the XDs or XDMs and elites are just rugged tuff gun that can take a beating and keep on ticking, and they are a good looking pistol , I’d put them up against any other polymer gun , just my opinion

Those rear polymer rails concern me. Good review overall.

It’s a great trigger

Try the pt92 compared to the xdm . I was set on the xdm for my wife. The pt92 is a much better pistol in my opinion. The pt92 has less muzzle flip. I do like the rounds the xdm holds. However you can still buy extended mags for the pt92.

I can't tell if the gun in the vid is OD Green or FDE I have a Sig P320 and this XDM ELITE Springfield is my dream gun.

Springfield does not shipped with the OSP plate adapter and the wrench to removed the cover. You have to go to their website and request your adapter plate and it takes them about 7 weeks to get them to your door. They don't even shipped this with a cleaning brush and a decent bag.

grip reminds me of cz100

How come the previous (non-elite) came with a second, non threaded barrel, for a cheaper cost, and this one does not?

Good, Thx

Everything is good

Too bad they couldn’t color match the mag well. That would have been a nice touch.

Perfect

Just bought one and I am in like with it very much. Will be doing some "Gangsta stuff" 🤣🤣😂😂

I’ve shoot a lot of striker fire guns but buy no means am I a expert but I have shoot 10s of thousands of rounds and these xdm elites from the 3.8 compact to the tactical are some of the bests shooting guns I’ve ever shot,

Wouldn't mind a comparo w/ the amazing Canik TP9SF Elite Combat for around the same price!

The grip safety is no big deal but ppl sure like to fuss about. I have a xdm 45 4.5, I hate the trigger. On a scale itl break at 5.5lbs to 6.5lbs. Other then the trigger it a good reliable gun. Rather then mod it ill wait for the elite to come out in .45

I love dat grip safety .. my 3yro can't shoot it

The sights are set up so you can co align with an optic, has nothing to do with using a suppressor.

Can you put the barrel from a XDM non OSP in it?

I had mine for about 400 rounds when the firing pin striker started getting hung up. I pulled the striker and it was filthy and gummed up. I had never had it out before. I thought I used a reasonable amount of solvent and applied small amount of ballistol via a q tip on the usual spots. Would an upgraded striker help avoid this?

How many yards you shooting? Lots of muzzle rise

Do you know if this gun can be bought from the factory in this configuration only without the threaded barrel?

Can you use 17rnd magazines in this? NJ laws here. Only 17rnds permitted

The xdm elite is great ..it needs better sights ..

did it come with the OSP adapter plates for various red dot sights?

Good review. I'm curious, how would you compare this to the Canik TP9 Elite Combat?

looked like he was shooting hot 10mm not 9mm from that recoiling in the beginning

Can you fit oem 20 round magazines in the pistol with large magwell?

can anyone speak on the recoil on this model? how does it compare to say a canik combat elite (i've heard they have less recoil for poly's)

Can anyone recommend Tritium sight replacement options? Thanks!

How too put it on semi auto?

Get stippling with the vemon ..

I put white dots on mine

Rather get my xdm elite than a Glock still

22 rds can we get a 50 Rd mag

Can you do this gun compared to the fn 509 tactical please?

those stock sights are just aweful, why are they so awkward and tall on this?, NM, for supressor clearance

Look at that guide lod

What holster fits this gun ??

Imma gangsta and i just found out i been shooting wrong this whoke time 😔

The gangsta hold. Low purchase.

Any holsters out there for these?

That kick tho 😒

Snappy much?........sheesh

Too much recoil

Love everything about this gun except "made in Croatia" and the recoil. Give it a metal frame and make it here please. I do not care if it is a giant and its heavy. Leave it for the bigger guys.

Okay I'm going to start off real nice by saying that you showed up in my recommended videos in RU-vid because I love springfield.xdm. And I got 2 of em im 10mm one of them is an elite one of them is an original now this is where we're going to get a little critical man....... I handle my 10 mm better.... at the range then you do with a 9 mm.... because the way it looks in your video it looks like you're shooting with a 10 which means you are not managing recoil well I would suggest you dig deep into some pistol training.... now this video is old and people continue to learn it would take me 20 minutes to teach you so I don't know if you have advanced and I am not calling you an amateur or a novice..... I call you Semi-Pro you're almost there but you got to go to Mike Glover's fieldcraft survival and check out his pistol training and learn to get up underneath that trigger guard with your pointer finger with your left hand and try to twist the gun almost out of your hand and you can learn some of the finer techniques of that from that guy from Warrior Poet Society I'm just teaching you what I've learned and I thought that I knew everything about pistol shooting and then I continue to learn and advanced my techniques for years and years and years and years and I am just simply sharing this with you you should be able to handle that 9 mm way better than you are.

I really do like your gun reviews. But it doesn't matter you never show yourself in the video's.
