Chambered in .40 S&W, this model offers a proven balance of stopping power and magazine capacity in a package designed for daily carry.

Overview

The Springfield Mod.2 40 S&W Sub-Compact Bi-Tone with GripZone (Compliant) is engineered for shooters who demand reliability in a compact form factor. Built on Springfield Armory’s proven Mod.2 platform, this sub-compact pistol features the proprietary GripZone texture system, which provides targeted traction where your hand naturally contacts the frame. The 3-inch barrel and reduced slide length make this pistol exceptionally concealable, while the .40 S&W cartridge delivers the terminal ballistics required for defensive use. This compliant model ships with reduced-capacity magazines, making it legal for purchase in states with magazine restrictions.

Features & Specs

The Springfield Mod.2 40 S&W Sub-Compact Bi-Tone with GripZone (Compliant) incorporates design elements that prioritize control and reliability under stress. Every component is built to function in defensive scenarios where failure is not an option.

• Bi-tone finish with a satin stainless steel slide and black Armorite coated barrel for reduced wear and simplified maintenance
• Compliant configuration includes 9-round flush fit magazine and 10-round extended magazine, meeting restricted capacity requirements
• 3-inch hammer-forged barrel with fully supported feed ramp for reliable chambering of .40 S&W ammunition
• Low-profile snag-resistant sights with white dot front and tactical rack rear for rapid sight acquisition
• Loaded chamber indicator and cocked striker indicator provide visual and tactile confirmation of firearm status

Additional specifications include an overall length of 6.2 inches, height of 4.5 inches, and an unloaded weight of 21.5 ounces. The frame incorporates a Picatinny accessory rail for mounting lights or lasers.

Who It’s For

The Springfield Mod.2 40 S&W Sub-Compact Bi-Tone with GripZone (Compliant) is designed for the concealed carrier who prioritizes control in a smaller package. This pistol suits experienced shooters who understand the recoil characteristics of .40 S&W and want a platform that mitigates muzzle flip through ergonomic design. The GripZone texture system benefits shooters with larger hands who find standard sub-compact grips too small, as the high-hand beavertail allows a full firing grip without slide bite. It is also appropriate for those living in or traveling to states with magazine capacity restrictions who want a factory-compliant firearm rather than aftermarket modifications. This is not a beginner’s pistol due to the .40 S&W cartridge, but it is a reliable tool for the trained defender.
