Springfield XD 45ACP Compact Model Black California Compliant

The Springfield XD 45ACP Compact Model Black California Compliant represents a precise intersection of controlled stopping power and legal compliance for Ohio firearm owners. Engineered by Springfield Armory, this polymer-framed semiautomatic pistol delivers the proven .45 ACP cartridge in a compact carry package that meets California regulatory standards. For Ohio shooters who prioritize reliability, magazine capacity restrictions, and a consistent trigger pull, this model offers a spec-dense solution without unnecessary bulk. The California Compliant designation ensures the firearm ships with a 10-round magazine, a feature that aligns with certain capacity-aware buyers conducting business through an FFL in states with magazine limits. The matte black finish reduces glare and provides corrosion resistance for daily carry or range use.

Overview

The Springfield XD 45ACP Compact Model Black California Compliant is a striker-fired handgun built on the proven XD platform, chambered in .45 ACP with a 4-inch barrel. This compact frame reduces overall length to 7.3 inches and height to 5.0 inches, making it suitable for concealed carry under Ohio permit laws. The California Compliant version ships with a fixed 10-round magazine, a departure from standard-capacity models. The slide features a loaded chamber indicator and a cocked striker indicator for visual and tactile verification. The polymer grip includes an integrated accessory rail for lights or lasers, and the grip safety provides an additional layer of mechanical security. Every owner of a Springfield XD 45ACP Compact Model Black California Compliant benefits from the Melonite finish on the barrel and slide, which extends service life under regular maintenance.
