Overview

This package delivers a comprehensive shooting system centered on the Springfield XDM 45ACP 5.25 Bi-Tone Competition Essentials Package. The 5.25-inch barrel increases sight radius and muzzle velocity compared to standard 4.5-inch models, while the bi-tone slide enhances durability and reduces glare.

All components are factory-matched to ensure immediate functionality. The XDM trigger system features a crisp break with a short reset, and the loaded chamber indicator provides visual confirmation of the firearm’s status. The frame incorporates an interchangeable backstrap system for grip customization across hand sizes.
