Looking for a lightweight subcompact pistol for carry?
[Be sure to read Paul CarlsonsSpringfield XDs Mod.2 9mm reviewfor additional information about this self-defense handgun.]
Need a competition pistol?
Need a source for a pistol for practically every need? Then check out Springfield Armory.
Check out theXD-M with a 5.25 barrel.Perhapsseveral of the XD-M Elite modelswill suit your needs.
How about a classic 1911?
Dont even get me started.
The new Hellcat 9mm pistol (optics-ready OSP model in FDE at right, and standard model in black at left).
Springfield Armory has many models from which to choose.
Im pretty sure by now that you get the picture.
Honestly, it would make most grown men cry.
Dan really liked the new XD-M Elite pistol, with its enhanced capacity and excellent trigger.
Instead of writing a review on each model, how about I do a compilation of Springfield Armory handguns?
Or, perhaps a big show-off session for my collection?
What should such a compilation of excellence be called?
There’s an XD-M model that’s just right for you, from 9mm to 10mm to .45 ACP models.
Got it: Springfield Armory Handgun World.
Check out my video above and keep reading this article below.
I do not have every handgun in their line; not even close.
The EMP4 at top has a bobbed grip for enhanced concealability, and the 911 in 9mm (below) is pint-sized and powerful.
If I had that kind of dough, I would own my own gun store.
Hands-On
Raise your hand if you have the 9mm Springfield Hellcat.
If so, you chose an excellent concealed carry pistol.
I featured both the standard and OSP (Optical Sight Pistol) Hellcats in the video.
I am yet to find anything I do not like about it.
The new 9mm XD-M Elite models take function and accuracy to a whole new level.
I didnt know Springfield Armory could improve on the XD-M models, but it looks like they did.
It uses the same U metal rear sight the Hellcat has along with a fiber optic front sight.
The overall fit, feel and function is amazing.
My friend shot my XD-M Elite and said, I have to get this gun.
Lets talk about aluminum-frame, hammer-fired 9mm handguns with 1911-like controls.
I showcased the Springfield EMP4 (Enhanced Micro Pistol) Concealed Carry Contour with a 4 bull barrel.
Firing that pistol is so smooth its like cheating.
Also, featured is the small and lightweight 911 in 9mm.
Fully loaded with eight rounds, the Springfield 911 weighs just 19.75 ounces.
It comes with night sights, G10 grips and a 7- and 6-round magazines.
There is nothing like a single-action 1911 trigger, and these two models deliver precise accuracy.
I know I like them all and cant choose just one for myself!
