Springfield Armory XDS Defender 9mm Pistol Sub Compact 10rd 3" – XDD9801

All of Springfield Armory’s firearms are user friendly, and the best bang for your buck! I thoroughly enjoy all of their products.

I think it's important to understand that this gun is an outdated model. Not only is this the older version of the same gun, but there are several new guns such as the sig p365 and Springfield hellcat that offer a greater or similar capacity in a smaller size. I understood this, and just wanted to add it to my collection as I lacked a Springfield. This was cheap, good fit. For the positives, it is an accurate and reliable pistol. They have also dumped the dumb plastic case and give you a

Quality and a decent price. Its heavier than I expected, it being a subcompact. Not cumbersome just heavier than I thought. The only drawbacks are no storage box and one magazine. Still worth the price

It was a gifted and signed over to my little sister. She shot it first time finally Saturday. Thus far she likes it!!

This is a bit larger than I expected for a sub-compact 9mm, but I do like it very much. I took it to the range this week and ran 24 rounds thru it. Nice feel, smooth trigger action. The only reason I didn't give it five stars is because it doesn't quite give me a perfect sight picture without re-adjusting my grip from what I'm used to with my M1911 .45 and my Browning Buck Mark .22.

A friend of mine had one of these. I went to the firing range and shot a few rounds through it. Sweetest shooting compact 9 I have ever fired. The grip doesn't feel great with the short mag in it. It is a little wide for concealed carry. Overall a great little gun.

This compact carry weapon from Springfield is very good. It has the three "R's" --reliability--reliability--reliability. It is also shoot-able and accurate. I chose the XD 9 sub compact because it has a grip safety and trigger safety and will not discharge while I appendix carry once I get my CCW. The weight is 29.6 ounces when loaded with a 16 round magazine. It also has a round in the chamber indicator and striker indicator so even in the dark you can tell if the gun is

Love this gun. Grab the 16 round mags for a good handful or you will likely not have a good grip on it.

Amazing pistol, excellent fit and finish. Feels good in hand. I should have bought two the price was so low. Buy one you won't be disappointed.

More than I expected, looks and shoots great right out of the box. Well made and comfortable, would highly recommend it for a regular carry handgun.

Great gun. Very good shooter for me personally. No issues up to this day. Would recommend Springfield and couldn’t beat the price.

Great price. Built like a tank. Easy to break down. Added talon grip and a flashlight/laser combo for the perfect home defense pistol.

Great No feeding issues ! Not too much recoil for a subcompact 9mm honestly expected it to have a decent bit of recoil. The guns really amazing I have the 16 round magazine and it runs amazing ! Highly recommend it especially for the price ! Got 2 for 711$ THATS A STEAL

Great gun at a great price. Small and compact easy for conceal and carry. Springfield Armory is a quality manufacturer and the XD series is a great addition to their lineup.

Exactly the size I needed for EDC. Built well. Easy to sight. I did purchase a couple extended magazines. My hands aren’t the biggest but my pinky curled under the magazine. Still shootable…but I didn’t care for the feeling. Extended magazine gives a better grip for me. 10 in a mag is nice. Highly recommend.

Man, what a great little gun! It feels good, shoots good and is pretty accurate for a small barrel! Excellent conceal carry! I’ve shot 200 rounds already with no issues!

Im a petite female in my early 40’s. This gun is pretty awesome! Minimal kickback - great size for my smaller hands. I do enjoy this purchase

Absolutely love it I definitely got my money's worth and a great carry piece with a Holster from versacarry

Nice pistol. Reasonably priced and feels great in your hand. Double action safety. Able to use a variety of different magazines

VERY good 9mm pistol. I like mine a LOT! Took it to the range yesterday and put about 100 rounds through it. Flawless, as usual.
