Springfield XDS Mod.2 3.3 Single Stack 45 ACP Pistol with Stainless Slide and Tritium Front Sight
Overview
Springfield Armory’s XDS Mod.2 3.3 Single Stack 45 ACP Pistol with Stainless Slide and Tritium Front Sight represents a refined evolution of the original XDS platform, engineered for shooters who demand a compact, single-stack .45 ACP with superior ergonomics and target acquisition. This pistol integrates a forged stainless steel slide with a Melonite finish, delivering corrosion resistance and durability in a subcompact frame. The tritium front sight enhances low-light visibility, while the Mod.2 generation introduces a squared slide profile, improved grip texture, and a more pronounced grip safety. Chambered in .45 ACP, the XDS Mod.2 maintains a 5+1 capacity with its flush-fit magazine and includes an extended magazine for a 6+1 capacity. The overall length measures 6.3 inches, with a 3.3-inch barrel, a height of 4.5 inches (with flush magazine), and an unloaded weight of 21.5 ounces. Each pistol ships with two magazines, a paddle holster, a belt holster, a double magazine pouch, and a cable lock.

The Springfield XDS Mod.2 3.3 Single Stack 45 ACP Pistol with Stainless Slide and Tritium Front Sight utilizes a forged stainless steel barrel with a 1:16 twist rate and a fully supported feed ramp.

Who It’s For
This pistol is designed for the concealed carrier who prioritizes caliber over capacity and requires a compact .45 ACP that prints minimally. The Springfield XDS Mod.2 3.3 Single Stack 45 ACP Pistol with Stainless Slide and Tritium Front Sight suits civilian self-defense, backup carry for law enforcement, and off-duty use. Its single-stack frame accommodates smaller hands while the aggressive grip texture ensures retention under recoil. The tritium front sight eliminates reliance on ambient light, making it a practical choice for low-light environments. Shooters who value a stainless slide for corrosion resistance in humid or coastal climates will find this model appropriate. It is not intended for competition or high-volume range sessions due to its limited capacity and subcompact ergonomics, but it excels as a personal protection tool when carried daily.
