This is my first post, please forgive me if this is not the correct section.

I am looking to find out how many sizes or models the XD comes in, as I would like to start stocking XD holsters. My uncle has a very nice XD in 9mm that has a 3 or 4 inch barrel. It seems like it would be a great carry gun, but I don't want to miss the boat on other common sizes.

Thanks for any information you are willing to share!

The XD page at Springfield Armory will give you everything you need.

XD's come in 3" (Subcompact), 4" (Compact & Service), and 5" (Tactical). The 9mm and .40s&w Service and Tactical are the same frame, but the muzzle end of the slide is where the extra length is.

The XDm's are 3.8" and 4.5" long on the slides with common frames as I understand it.

The .45 ACP's have different frame/slide widths.

The xdm's will also be coming in a 5.25" barrel.

Thanks for the replies!

I was really looking to find out what the popular models are. I am planning on stocking holsters for the XD/XDm, but I only want to stock the ones that are the most owned/carried. That is not information I would be able to find on thier website or wiki.

Thanks again!

Welcome to the forum, Bobby. Do you have a web site for your business?

The XD9 Subcompact is certainly right up there on the list for IWB carry.

Thanks!!!

Welcome to the forum, Bobby. Do you have a web site for your business?

Sure, it's in my sig below.

Sure, it's in my sig below.

I think you want to edit the link in your sig. Right now it's going to xdtalk.com/forums/clevelandsholsters.com, which of course is not a real page. I think if you include the http:// in the link, it should link externally.

 

[cleveland]

Doh! I'm on it!

 

[cleveland]

I believe it is now fixed. Would someone be willing to confirm that it is working?

Thanks again!

 

[CarlosT]

It's good now.

As far as most popular for carry:

SubCompact #1
Compact/Service (same size) #2

There really don't seem to be any really good CC options for the Tactical.

Clearly you have been on this forum for a while. If YOU were making IWB holsters like the ones on my site, those are the two sizes you would make them for?

If I was planning on selling the most concealed carry holsters I could, I would definitely start there.

One thing I like about my Galco King Tuck holster is that it fits all XD/XDM models. At least it did at the gunshop the other day, I was carrying my XD9sc but tried it with an XD 45c, XDM 45, XDM 3.8 9mm and XD 45. All fit perfect.

Really? Maybe I am over thinking this? They let you try their guns in the holster?

Yeah lol, I have bought all the guns in my signature from them, I know the guys well. It's a pawn shop actually but they sell new and used guns, mostly new actually and have a large selection for this crap town I live in.

Same here... Just about every store I've gone into (even Bass Pro and Gander Mountain) let me take a holster over to the counter and either try it with a gun in their case, or let me bring my **Unloaded** pistol in and check the fit.

Some of the Hybrid makers make the kydex portion to the 3" (or a bit longer), with the leather portion long enough to cover the 5" and the let the customer trim the bottom shorter (if need be).
