Design and key features

Barrel, slide, and sights

The Melonite finish on the slide and barrel delivers durable surface protection and low friction for reliable cycling. Fully supported ramp and dovetail front and rear three-dot sights—fiber optic front paired with a low-profile combat rear—help deliver fast sight acquisition in varied lighting conditions.

Frame, grip, and ergonomics

A black polymer frame reduces weight while Mega-lock grip texturing improves purchase under stress. At 29 ounces with an empty magazine and a 1.18″ grip width, the 3.8″ configuration balances controllability with concealability; overall length is 6.75″ and height 5.75″.

Performance, capacity, and applications

Chambered in 9mm, the XD(M) 3.8 benefits from widely available ammunition, controllable recoil, and modern defensive ballistic choices. The package ships with two 19-round stainless steel magazines, offering substantial capacity for duty, home defense, and range training. The match-grade narrow tolerance barrel and trigger deliver improved shot-to-shot consistency suitable for skilled shooters and professionals.

The listed price is $545.99, providing match-grade features and durable construction at a competitive price point. For purchase or to see current stock, View product details and pricing.
