It\u2019s also equipped with U-Dot tritium sights and Adaptive Grip Texture, making it a solid choice for concealed carry.<\/p>\n<p>The Hellcat Pro steps it up, keeping the compact design but extending the barrel to 3.7\u2033 and the frame for a better grip, resulting in improved control. With OSP and U-Dot sights included, it\u2019s another robust EDC option.<\/p>\n<p>As for the XD-M Elite 4.5\u201d 9mm, it\u2019s the pinnacle of its class. It features the Match Enhanced Trigger Assembly (META), ambidextrous controls, and improved slide serrations for a superior shooting experience.<\/p>\n<p>All three models are equipped with two 10-round magazines and built to meet California\u2019s stringent \u201csafety\u201d standards, including magazine disconnect safeties and special loaded chamber indicators. While the XD-M Elite 4.5\u201d omits the extended magwell found on other Elite models, it doesn\u2019t compromise on performance or durability.<\/p>\n<p>Steve Kramer, Vice President of Marketing at Springfield Armory, says, \u201cThese new California-compliant pistols give residents of the state of California an opportunity to own their own versions of some truly innovative and exceptional handguns,\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cFrom two of the most popular EDC-ready pistols on the market \u2014 the Hellcat and Hellcat Pro \u2014 to the highly refined and advanced XD-M Elite 9mm, California residents now have a host of impressive options for their collections,\u201d he added. <\/p>\n<p>The California-compliant Hellcat is priced at $633, the Hellcat Pro at $649, and the XD-M Elite 4.5\u201d 9mm at $609.
