My xdm brothers i will buy the xdm 5.25 but is there really a reason i should choose it over the 4.5... And if there is a reason is that reason a good enough reason to spend the extra cash ?

Only you can answer this question !!

Myself - XD9 Tactical versus XDm 5.25 range reports from the bench - The answer is a matter of perception, and the jury has reached a decision.

But why did tney make the 5.25 whatis the difference?

Main difference is the lightened slide, and adjustable/FO sights, also, technically a longer sight radius with the extra 3/4" of slide.

So then im basically better off just buying a 4.5 ?

 

[AZXD]

OH ... Difference ... Nevermind

What is your purpose for buying either ?

Don't know.....what are you planning on using it for?

If you a gamer, or like competition, you may like the 5.25 better
That said though, there are lots of happy 4.5 gamers out there

And there are many 4/4.5 gamers who's slides operate faster than others, when operating in the open divisions .

Well really this is gonna be my HD/shooting range gun...

Either would work fine for HD. But if you don't plan on competing at all then save the cash and get the 4.5.

 

[nineohglock]

HD/ shooting range is what this gun will be purchased for

 

[nineohglock]

So just for the range im better off getting the 4.5 ... Ok thats perfect dude thanks everyone

If you are planning on carrying it, get the 4.5 XDm, The 5.25 was built for competition use, not so much for everyday carry.

 

[nineohglock]

Wouldnt the 5.25 barrel make it more accurate? Or is the difference not noticeable

Not necessarily... probably not noticeable for home defense and average range use thats for sure
