Okay...I never wanted one until recently...

Hickok's XDM 5.25 vid got me drooling...prolly will buy the XD next instead of another Glock...but I want the one that is the same size as the G19.

So is the Service 4" or the Compact? I know I don't want the sub compact.

Anybody have any comparo pics?

Thanks For Your TIme

Why is there a compact on Springfield's website then? XD not XDM

[datnvan]

because they didnt want to name it xdm service i guess. its just a name. either way, the service model is the same size as the g19. my sister has a service and i have my g19's theyre the same.

not my pic btw, just for reference

If you stack a Glock 19 and an XD45c on top of one another, you would not be able to tell which is which without looking closely -- they are almost the exact same size.

Well there is a Compact XD on the Springfield website. Dimensions show it being a half inch taller than the sub-compact and a half inch shorter than the Service model. So it does exist. Not that it matters and I'm not trying to argue. I don't know how to link it because it of the way the site works...

Go look if you don't believe me...

EDIT: It appears to be only in the .45 ACP XD models. Lo Siento Mi Amigos!

yes u are correct but i assumed he wanted one in 9mm like the g19. either way, best of luck. i used to own xd's as well but came back to glock.

I've decided to get the new 5.25 when I have the funds. It will be a range gun.

The XD Tactical in .45ACP is a wonderful pistol; you can't go wrong there!

[streakpi]

I own the XD .45c and the G23. The G23 is the exact same size as the G19. The XD .45c is the only compact version...weird eh? The sub-compacts are totally different XDd. Will take and post a pic soon.

The XD45 Compact is very close to the size of the G19/23

The "Compact" XD is a XD-45 with the grip shortened. As such, it is identical in length and only shorter (by 3/4") in height (comparing it to the other XD-45, of course...comparing it to the 9/40 XD's would be silly). The XD Compact comes in either "Service" or "Tactical" (4" barrel or 5" barrel).

Take a look at the XDm Compact 9mm.
6.750" Overal Length
4.750" Overall Height
That makes it just a bit smaller than the G19, but it's as close as any of the XD/XDm models get...the XD-45 Compact Service being the only other contender in size but it's a different caliber.

But since it was the XDm 5.25 that impressed you, it would be real silly to get something smaller and expect it to be as sweet a shooter as the 5.25.
