NEW Springfield Armory XD Mod.4 OSP 9mm Pistol

Springfield Armory has introduced the XD Mod.4 OSP 9mm, the latest iteration of its long-running striker-fired pistol lineup, with an MSRP of $399. The Mod.4 OSP (Optical Sight Pistol) features a factory-milled slide with a plate-based mounting system designed to accommodate a range of popular red dot optics. Plates are available separately through the company’s store.

The pistol uses a polymer frame with aggressive texturing focused on key contact areas, along with an undercut trigger guard and extended beavertail intended to support a higher grip. Slide serrations are positioned at both the front and rear to aid manipulation under various conditions.

Springfield Armory has retained several passive safety features, including a grip safety, a striker status indicator at the rear of the slide, and a tactile loaded chamber indicator.

I noticed it’s easy to miss the grip safety on most of the images, so here’s a detailed look.

The XD Mod.4 OSP is equipped with a flat-faced trigger, a red fiber optic front sight paired with a white dot rear sight, and a Picatinny accessory rail on the dust cover. It ships with a 16-round magazine, with a 10-round version available for restricted markets (same price).

Springfield Armory positions the XD Mod.4 OSP as a budget-friendly, optics-ready option within the current striker-fired handgun market.

"The original XD established a new standard for striker-fired pistols at its launch 25 years ago," said Steve Kramer, Vice President of Marketing for Springfield Armory. "With this new XD Mod.4 OSP, you have a thoroughly modern and capable update of this proven platform that offers an outstanding level of value for the shooter."

The new models are:

• XD Mod.4 OSP 9mm | XDDG9101B-M4 | 706397003531
• XD Mod.4 OSP 9mm, Lo-Cap | XDDG9101BLC-M4
