About this product
<h1>Springfield XD 40 S&W 4.0 Full-Size Service Model with V-10 Ported Barrel</h1> <p>The Springfield XD 40 S&W 4.0 Full-Size Service Model with V-10 Ported Barrel represents a purpose-built defensive handgun engineered for shooters who demand reduced muzzle flip and rapid follow-up shot capability in a full-frame platform. Chambered in .40 S&W and built on Springfield Armory’s proven XD striker-fired system, this service model delivers a 4.0-inch barrel with factory V-10 porting to mitigate recoil and muzzle rise. The polymer frame with integral steel guide rail ensures durability while maintaining a balanced weight distribution suitable for duty, home defense, or range use.</p> <h2>Overview</h2> <p>Springfield Armory’s XD line has established a reputation for reliability and ergonomic design in the law enforcement and civilian markets. The Springfield XD 40 S&W 4.0 Full-Size Service Model with V-10 Ported Barrel takes this foundation and adds a compensated barrel system that vents propellant gasses upward through four rectangular ports, counteracting muzzle rise during rapid fire. The 4.0-inch barrel length provides a balance between sight radius and concealability, while the .40 S&W cartridge offers a proven balance of magazine capacity and terminal ballistics. This model includes the iconic XD grip safety, a loaded chamber indicator, and a visual striker status indicator.</p> <h2>Features & Specs</h2> <ul> <li><strong>Barrel and Porting System:</strong> 4.0-inch hammer-forged steel barrel with V-10 porting. Four precision-machined ports reduce muzzle rise by approximately 30% compared to non-ported barrels, facilitating faster sight reacquisition.</li> <li><strong>Frame and Ergonomics:</strong> High-impact polymer frame with interchangeable backstraps (three sizes included). The grip angle promotes natural point of aim, and the textured surface provides positive traction under recoil.</li> <li><strong>Safety Systems:</strong> Three integrated safeties: grip safety, trigger safety, and firing pin block. Loaded chamber indicator and striker status indicator provide visual confirmation of firearm condition.</li> </ul> <ul> <li><strong>Caliber:</strong> .40 S&W</li> <li><strong>Capacity:</strong> 12+1 rounds (two magazines included)</li> <li><strong>Sights:</strong> Steel 3-dot sights, dovetailed front and rear</li> <li><strong>Trigger:</strong> Striker-fired with consistent 5.5-6.5 pound pull</li> <li><strong>Overall Length:</strong> 7.3 inches</li> <li><strong>Weight:</strong> 27.5 ounces (unloaded)</li> <li><strong>Finish:</strong> Melonite slide finish for corrosion resistance</li> </ul> <ul> <li><strong>Accessories Included:</strong> Two magazines, magazine loading tool, cable lock, hard plastic case, and three interchangeable backstraps</li> <li><strong>Manufacturer:</strong> Springfield Armory</li> <li><strong>Category:</strong> Firearms</li> </ul> <h2>Who It Is For</h2> <p>The Springfield XD 40 S&W 4.0 Full-Size Service Model with V-10 Ported Barrel is designed for shooters who prioritize recoil management without sacrificing magazine capacity or barrel length. This model suits law enforcement officers seeking a duty-grade sidearm with integrated compensation, competitive shooters who value reduced muzzle flip in the .40 S&W platform, and civilian users building a home defense handgun that allows faster follow-up shots. The full-size grip accommodates larger hands, while the interchangeable backstraps allow customization for smaller hand sizes. Users who shoot high-round-count training sessions will benefit from the ported barrel’s ability to keep the muzzle flat during sustained fire.</p> <h2>Shipping & FFL</h2> <p>This firearm must be shipped to a Federal Firearms License (FFL) holder for transfer.
