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 represents a dedicated competition-ready platform engineered for shooters who demand precise shot placement and rapid target transitions. Built on Springfield Armory’s proven XDM Elite frame, this 5.25-inch barreled variant delivers the extended sight radius and slide mass necessary for consistent accuracy at distance. Whether you are competing in USPSA, IDPA, or honing fundamentals at the range, this pistol offers a balanced combination of trigger refinement, grip ergonomics, and sight acquisition speed.

Overview

The Springfield XDM Elite Precision 5.25 9mm full-size black pistol with fiber optic front sight is a purpose-built target pistol that bridges the gap between factory duty guns and custom race guns. The 5.25-inch match-grade barrel is paired with a fully supported ramp to feed a wide variety of defensive and competition ammunition reliably. The slide features deep front and rear cocking serrations, while the fiber optic front sight contrasts sharply against the black serrated rear sight for fast daylight acquisition. The black Melonite finish on both slide and barrel provides corrosion resistance and reduces glare under range lights.

Features & Specs

• Barrel and Accuracy: 5.25-inch hammer-forged stainless steel barrel with a 1:10 right-hand twist, fully supported feed ramp, and a recessed target crown. Slide-to-barrel fit is tighter than standard XDM models to maximize consistency.
• Sight System: Fiber optic front sight (0.100-inch diameter, red fiber) dovetailed into the slide. Black serrated rear sight with a square notch is windage-adjustable. The sight radius measures 7.3 inches, aiding precision at 25 yards.
• Trigger System: Springfield’s Elite match-grade trigger with a lightweight trigger pull averaging 4.5 to 5.5 pounds. Pre-travel and overtravel are minimized, and the trigger features an integral blade safety. Reset is tactile and audible.

• Frame and Grip: Glass-filled polymer frame with the XDM Elite texture pattern on the grip and front strap. Interchangeable backstraps (three included) allow palm swell adjustment. The 1913 Picatinny rail on the dust cover accommodates lights or lasers.
• Capacity and Magazine: Ships with two 22-round stainless steel magazines with extended base pads. Magazine release is ambidextrous and reversible. The mag well is slightly beveled for faster reloads.
