Key Features and Tactical Benefits

The XD-M Elite’s META trigger features a flat face, crisp break and an integral overtravel stop—traits that shorten split times and improve shot-to-shot consistency. Complementing that trigger are ergonomic upgrades that speed reloads and manipulation:

• Extended and flared magwell for faster, more reliable reloads under stress.
• Ambidextrous slide stop for left- and right-hand shooters.
• Redesigned slide serrations with larger, enhanced grasping grooves for positive purchase when performing press checks or slide manipulations.
• Hammer-forged barrel intended for longevity and match-grade accuracy.
• Loaded chamber indicator designed to be both a visual and tactile confirmation of the pistol’s status.

Handling & Range Performance

The combination of a flat-faced META trigger and refined serrations gives the shooter predictable trigger control and secure slide handling. The flared magwell is especially beneficial for competitive shooters moving to this pistol from single-stack designs, and the ambi slide stop modernizes controls for duty or training rigs. These features make the XD-M Elite suitable for range instructors, competitive shooters, and professionals who need a robust, repeatable pistol platform. View product details and pricing
