Springfield XD 40 S&W 4.0 Full-Size Service Model with V-10 Ported Barrel

The Springfield XD 40 S&W 4.0 Full-Size Service Model with V-10 Ported Barrel is a reliable, duty-grade pistol built for shooters who want a flat-shooting, fast-recovering handgun. Chambered in .40 S&W, this full-size model combines the proven XD ergonomics with a factory-ported barrel and slide to reduce muzzle rise and felt recoil. Whether you are looking for a range companion or a serious personal defense tool, this model gives you the mechanical edge of a compensated setup without the bulk of an aftermarket compensator.

Overview

Springfield Armory designed the XD series around a striker-fired, polymer-frame platform that prioritizes consistency and control. The springfield xd 40 s&w 4.0 full-size service model with v-10 ported barrel features a 4-inch barrel with six V-shaped ports machined into the top. These ports vent propellant gas upward as the bullet exits, pushing the muzzle back down on target. The result is a noticeably flatter recoil impulse and quicker follow-up shots. The full-size grip frame holds a double-stack magazine for 12+1 capacity, and the slide has a loaded chamber indicator and cocked striker indicator for visual and tactile confirmation of the gun’s status.

Features & Specs

• Caliber: .40 S&W; barrel length: 4.0 inches; overall length: 7.3 inches; weight empty: 27.5 ounces
• V-10 ported barrel system: six ports (five on the barrel, one on the slide) reduce muzzle rise and perceived recoil
• Forged steel slide with Melonite finish for corrosion resistance; hammer-forged barrel with target-grade crown
• Loaded chamber indicator, striker status indicator, and grip safety with a 5.5 to 7.7-pound trigger pull

The springfield xd 40 s&w 4.0 full-size service model with v-10 ported barrel ships with two 12-round magazines, a paddle-style belt holster, a double magazine pouch, and a cable lock. The trigger system uses a pre-cocked striker with a short, consistent reset. Sights are a three-dot white system with a dovetailed front and rear, and the slide is cut for standard XD sight replacements. The frame features an integral accessory rail for lights or lasers.

• Polymer frame with textured grip insert; interchangeable backstraps included (small, medium, large)
• Overall height: 5.6 inches; grip angle optimized for natural point of aim
• Manual safety version, but this model relies on the grip safety and trigger safety for passive protection

Who It’s For

This pistol is for the shooter who wants the terminal performance of .40 S&W but wants to reduce the snap that sometimes comes with the caliber. The V-10 porting makes this an excellent choice for shooters with less hand strength, those recovering from hand injuries, or anyone who simply prefers a flatter-shooting full-size handgun. It is also well-suited for competitive shooters in IDPA SSP or USPSA Production who want factory porting without modifying the gun. Law enforcement officers or armed security personnel who carry a full-size duty pistol will appreciate the faster sight recovery during drills. If you train frequently and shoot high round counts, the Melonite finish and forged internals hold up well to extended use.

• Ideal for shooters who want reduced muzzle rise in a .40 S&W platform
• Full-size frame fits larger hands and provides a solid grip for recoil management
• Great option for those who prefer a factory ported barrel over aftermarket modifications
