Law enforcement officers, security professionals, and private citizens who require a 10-round magazine for legal compliance will find this model maintains the same slide velocity, recoil impulse, and parts compatibility as the standard 13-round and 16-round XD service models. The pistol is appropriate for range training, home defense, and concealed carry where permitted by local law.
