The Springfield XD-S
The Springfield XD-S is the original concealed carry 45 micro pistol. It is lighter, thinner and more compact than any other concealed carry 45. Its triple Ultra Safety Assurance action trigger system brings peace of mind by going beyond the traditional trigger bar safety and adding a beavertail safety and internal firing pin block. It comes with interchangeable backstraps so you can customize the grip to your hand. There are extra fiber optic tubes included for the front sights; one red and one green so you can select the color that works best for you.
Springfield added more features with the Mod.2 that make a great gun even better. The Grip Zone texture is designed to provide positive control in the areas of the grip where it is most effective. It also features a redesigned grip that moves your hand up closer to the bore axis which improves control and reduces felt recoil. The trigger has a shorter reset and the slide is recontoured so it is thinner and has longer and deeper serrations that make it is easier to rack. Springfield also added a tactical rear steel sight that can be used to rack the slide against a table or your belt. Both are great concealed carry guns with a proven track record of reliability.
