Springfield XD 40 S&W 4.0 Full-Size Service Model With V-10 Ported Barrel

The Springfield XD 40 S&W 4.0 Full-Size Service Model with V-10 Ported Barrel delivers a proven duty-grade platform engineered for shooters who demand reliability and reduced muzzle rise. This full-size service pistol combines the proven XD ergonomics with a factory-ported barrel and slide system, offering controlled follow-up shots without sacrificing the 4.0-inch barrel length required for service holster compatibility. Chambered in .40 S&W, this model provides the ballistic performance and magazine capacity expected by California shooters operating within state-compliant parameters.

Overview

The Springfield XD 40 S&W 4.0 Full-Size Service Model with V-10 Ported Barrel is a factory-original design that integrates four precision-cut V-10 ports into the barrel and matching slide ports. This porting system reduces muzzle rise by directing expanding gases upward, allowing the shooter to maintain sight alignment during rapid strings of fire. The polymer frame incorporates the XD line’s signature grip safety, trigger safety, and loaded chamber indicator. The full-size service configuration provides a 4.0-inch barrel, a 15-round magazine capacity (restricted to 10-round magazines for California compliance), and a Picatinny accessory rail for mounting lights or lasers.

This is not a custom or aftermarket modification. The V-10 porting is engineered and tested by Springfield Armory as an integral part of the firearm’s manufacturing process, ensuring consistent performance and reliability across all ammunition types.
