The XD-M Elite represents the pinnacle of full-size, polymer-framed pistol design. It is built around the META (Match Enhanced Trigger Assembly) trigger for the ultimate performance in a striker-fired firearm. The META trigger sports a flat face, crisp break and integral overtravel stop that combine to deliver the best trigger in a factory polymer-framed pistol. Upgrades like an extended and flared magwell, ambi slide stop and enhanced slide serrations make the Elite a must-have option. The Elite's redesigned slide serrations give you larger and enhanced grasping grooves for even better purchase. The hammer-forged barrel is designed to deliver long life and match-grade accuracy, while its loaded chamber indicator is designed as both a visual and tactile indicator of the pistol's status. The Springfield Armory XD-M Elite Compact packs all the advanced features of the Elite line into a CCW-ready package with a compact slide and short, concealable frame. Featuring the Match Enhanced Trigger Assembly (META) delivering the finest production polymer-framed pistol trigger pull available, ambidextrous slide stop and improved slide serrations the XD-M Elite Compact is a compact and concealable defender that is ready for CCW.
