Springfield XDM Elite Precision 5.25 9mm Full-Size Black Pistol with Fiber Optic Front Sight
The Springfield XDM Elite Precision 5.25 9mm full-size black pistol with fiber optic front sight is engineered for shooters who demand match-grade accuracy in a production-ready platform. Built on Springfield Armory’s proven XDM Elite chassis, this 5.25-inch barrel variant delivers extended sight radius and enhanced velocity for target shooting and competition use. The full-size black slide features aggressive front and rear cocking serrations, while the fiber optic front sight ensures rapid target acquisition in varied lighting conditions. Each pistol is factory-tested for reliability and ships with two 22-round magazines, a paddle and push-button magazine release, and a fitted polymer case with two interchangeable backstraps.
Overview
The Springfield XDM Elite Precision 5.25 9mm full-size black pistol with fiber optic front sight represents Springfield Armory’s commitment to precision engineering in a duty-sized handgun. The 5.25-inch cold hammer-forged barrel is matched with a match-grade trigger offering a crisp, short-reset pull. The full-size black polymer frame includes an integrated Picatinny rail for mounting lights or lasers. The fiber optic front sight is paired with a low-profile combat rear sight with a red fiber optic insert, providing a three-dot sight picture ideal for fast transitions. This model is also available in .45 ACP and 10mm, but the 9mm configuration offers reduced recoil and higher magazine capacity for extended range sessions.
