Springfield Armory XD-9 4" Service Model Legacy Series – a lightly-used, striker-fired 9 mm with 16+1 capacity, Melonite-hardened steel, and the unmistakable grip safety that made the XD line famous.
Born in Croatia as the HS2000 and refined for the U.S. market by Springfield Armory, the XD-9 Legacy Series pairs modern striker-fired speed with a 1911-style grip safety, giving shooters the best of two proven worlds. A hammer-forged 4" barrel, nitrided slide and barrel, full-size grip, and ambidextrous controls make this particular pistol a practical performer and a collectible snapshot of the XD’s earliest American iterations.

Designed as a duty-grade sidearm, the XD-9 earned NRA Handgun of the Year honors twice and quickly found favor in USPSA Production Division for its reliable 16+1 capacity and natural point-of-aim. The Legacy Series slide is treated with Springfield’s Melonite finish, a deep-salt nitrocarburizing process similar to Tenifer, delivering exceptional corrosion resistance without adding thickness. Under the slide, a cold-hammer-forged barrel and fully supported chamber keep pressures in check and accuracy on point.
Controls are where the XD-9 separates itself from the striker-fired crowd. A bilateral push-button magazine release caters to either hand, while the pivoting trigger safety, internal striker block, and tactile loaded-chamber indicator provide redundant, unobtrusive safeguards. The rear-frame grip safety—instinctive yet unobtrusive—locks the sear and slide unless depressed, echoing the reassurance of a classic 1911 in a modern package.
Whether you’re assembling a lineup of historically significant polymer pistols, need a trustworthy nightstand companion, or simply appreciate a clean, early-generation XD, this example checks every box with minimal wear and all the factory essentials.
A proven design in excellent shape, ready to head straight from the case to the range—don’t miss the opportunity to make it yours.
