Springfield XDS 3.3 45 ACP Stainless Pistol With Stippling On Grip (Manufacturer Sample)

Overview

When you pick up the Springfield XDS 3.3 45 ACP Stainless Pistol with Stippling on Grip (Manufacturer Sample), you immediately notice the balance between concealability and firepower. This is a single-stack 45 ACP that doesn’t skimp on control. The stainless slide and barrel give it a clean, corrosion-resistant finish, while the grip features aggressive stippling from the factory—no aftermarket work needed. As a manufacturer sample, this piece represents the same build quality you’d expect from Springfield Armory’s regular production line, often with slightly tighter tolerances used for demo or display units. Chambered in 45 ACP, it delivers proven stopping power in a package that disappears under a cover garment. The 3.3-inch barrel keeps the overall length short, but the grip texture ensures you maintain a secure hold during rapid fire.

Features & Specs

This Springfield XDS 3.3 45 ACP Stainless Pistol with Stippling on Grip (Manufacturer Sample) comes loaded with practical features that make it a strong choice for daily carry. Springfield Armory designed the XDS series around reliability and shootability, and this stainless variant holds true to that reputation.

• Caliber: 45 ACP with a 3.3-inch stainless steel barrel and a forged stainless slide for long-term durability
• Factory-applied grip stippling provides a non-slip texture without being abrasive against bare skin during all-day carry
• Includes two magazines: one flush-fit 5-round and one extended 6-round with a grip extension for a full firing grip

The stainless finish on both slide and barrel resists sweat and moisture, making it a practical choice for humid environments or concealed carry that stays close to the body. The trigger features a crisp break with a short reset, and the loaded chamber indicator gives you a tactile and visual confirmation of the firearm’s status.

• Overall length of 6.3 inches and an unloaded weight of approximately 23 ounces for easy concealment
• Rack-assisted front and rear sights for quick target acquisition in low-light conditions
• Melonite finish on internal components for added corrosion resistance and reduced wear

Who It’s For

This pistol is built for the shooter who wants 45 ACP power in a slim, pocketable frame. It’s ideal for concealed carriers who prefer the ballistics of 45 ACP over 9mm but struggled to find a single-stack that doesn’t feel like a brick. The factory stippling on the grip makes it a strong option for shooters with larger hands who need more texture to maintain control, or for anyone who wants a ready-to-carry gun without sending it out for custom work. It also suits left-handed shooters, since the magazine release is fully ambidextrous. If you’re building a deep-concealment setup or a backup gun for duty use, the Springfield XDS 3.3 45 ACP Stainless Pistol with Stippling on Grip (Manufacturer Sample) fits that role without compromise.
