Springfield XDS 3.3 Single Stack 9mm Blue Essentials Package (Manufacturer Sample)

Overview

This listing is for a manufacturer sample of the Springfield XDS 3.3 Single Stack 9mm Blue Essentials Package. As a factory sample, this unit is a production-intent firearm that may exhibit minor handling marks or cosmetic variations consistent with pre-release evaluation use. Mechanically, it functions to the same specification as the standard retail model, chambered in 9mm with a 3.3-inch barrel and a forged stainless steel slide with a Melonite finish. The single-stack magazine capacity is 7+1, with an extended 9-round magazine included for backup. This package is intended for California customers seeking a compact, single-stack 9mm pistol for personal defense, bearing in mind the state’s restricted handgun roster requirements.

Features & Specs

The Springfield XDS 3.3 Single Stack 9mm Blue Essentials Package (manufacturer sample) delivers the proven ergonomics and reliability of the XDS platform.

The trigger pull is factory-rated at 5.5 to 6.5 pounds with a short reset.

Who It’s For

This springfield xds 3.3 single stack 9mm blue essentials package (manufacturer sample) is intended for California residents who are licensed to purchase a firearm under California Penal Code requirements and who are specifically seeking a single-stack 9mm for concealed carry or home defense. It suits shooters who prioritize slim ergonomics and ease of concealment over magazine capacity. Because the XDS 3.3 is not currently listed on the California Roster of Handguns Certified for Sale, this manufacturer sample is offered as a private-party transfer or through an exempt transaction (e.g., law enforcement purchase, intra-familial transfer, or single-shot exemption build). Buyers should verify their eligibility and the transfer method with their receiving FFL before ordering. This is not a firearm for casual plinking; it is a defensive tool designed for reliable function under stress.

• California-legal transfer method required: single-shot exemption, law enforcement exemption, or roster-exempt private transfer
• Not recommended for shooters requiring high-capacity magazines; single-stack design limits round count to 7+1 or 9+1
• Ideal for experienced pistol shooters who understand the nuances of a compact, single-stack 9mm platform

Shipping & FFL

This springfield xds 3.3 single stack 9mm blue essentials package (manufacturer sample) will ship to a Federal Firearms License (FFL) dealer of your choice within the United States. For California customers, the receiving FFL must be willing to process the transfer under California law, which may include a 10-day waiting period, a firearms safety certificate, and compliance with the state’s roster restrictions.

By purchasing, you certify that you are legally eligible to own a firearm and that your FFL dealer is aware of and can process a manufacturer sample transfer. No returns or cancellations after shipment.

• Shipped only to a valid FFL dealer in California; buyer must provide FFL copy at time of order
• FFL transfer disclaimer: Buyer assumes all responsibility for compliance with local, state, and federal laws; seller is not liable for denied transfers based on California roster restrictions or dealer refusal
