Love the gun. Great product at a great value. Shoots great, no issues feeding / ejecting and I’ve run about 800-1000 rounds through it.

I am just getting around to doing a review on this firearm after owning it for many years. This firearm was just what I was looking for in a conceal and carry pistol. It is very lightweight and accepts all magazine sizes from the XD line. It is meant for close range situations so for good groups at the range keep them at 20 yards and under Wearing light clothes in warm weather is easy to conceal Great accuracy and very simply to break down and clean and maintain

Great product. Compact size with plenty of knock down power.

This is my go-to carry piece. I put 800 rounds through before first cleaning just to see if I could get a jam or malfunction...it operated perfectly. Quite nice fit and finish. Ideal size for IWOB carry. Highly recommend

Awesome shooting pistol. Took to rand used cheap tulammo and it spit out every one without fail. Great shot grouping right out box. I had looked at Buds for a long time. They are easy to work with and email notifications help track your order

This is one nice pistol, well made with quality materials. It is a pleasure to shoot, works flawlessly and is very accurate. I can't say enough about it. I have a XD 45 and Springfield is at the top of the line in there weaponry. I would recommend them to anyone. The balance of this pistol is great and the extended magazine is good for larger hand and the short mag is great for the ladies. My wife just loves to shoot this pistol. You cannot go wrong with this one.

Maybe the best buy I have made in a while. Absolutely love this handgun! Had to send rounds down range immediately upon receiving it. I'm very satisfied and will not hesitate to purchase from Springfield armory again. And when doing so it will be through buds! Another great deal and wonderful treatment from buds gunshop.com!

Product- the 3" subcompact springfield is a great pistol. I purchased the 40 cal for concealed carry purpose. The 9-rd magazine (flush on the bottom) makes the handgun barely long enough for my medium/average sized hands so there is not much wiggle room for grip. The 12rd mag has plenty of room. I havent shot it yet but there are way better reviews online than I could ever give. So go to a local shop to handle it then buy it from Buds. Buds- i was informed of 7 to 14 days processing time for my order and Buds shipped it on day 12. The pistol arrived at my local FFL after two days. So, start to finish it was a 15 day process. You cant beat Buds price (even with the transfer fee).

Great gun. Shoots great, conceals very well. Only problem is white paint fell off front sight after about 20 rounds. Buds shipped very fast, payment received Friday and I had it on wendsday.

ABSOLUTELY LOVE THE GUN. PERFECT IN EVERY WAY INCLUDING THE PRICE BEING ALMOST $150 CHEAPER THAN ANYONE IN TOWN. ONLY ISSUE WITH TRANSACTION WAS THAT THE GUN WAS SHIPPED TO AN FFL DEALER WHO WAS OUT OF TOWN AND HAVING ANOTHER FFL DEALER HANDLE HIS TRANSFERS WHILE AWAY. PROBLEM WAS THAT THE GUN WAS SHIPPED WITHOUT ANYONE AT BUDS CONTACTING THE DEALER, SO IT WAS SENT TO AN ADDRESS WITH NO ONE THERE AND TOOK SEVERAL CALLS AND TEXTS WITH THE DEALER TO LOCATE THE GUN AND SCHEDULE A PICK UP TIME.

I just got back from the range and couldn't wait to post. This is a fantastic firearm! I was driving tacks within 3" groups from 15-20 feet. It came sighted in perfectly as I hit all four corners of the target with ease. The trigger pull is incredible as it is comfortable and smooth. I bought this for my CCW but did not want to carry with one in the pipe because this was my first pin striker firearm. After the range, I was completely comfortable with it fully loaded and ready to go. This is easily my first choice for my CCW. I read plenty of reviews before purchasing and I'm happy to share the news. Springfield makes a great pistol. It was such a breeze to takedown and clean as well. The magazines are a little tight at first, but not a big deal. Just fill both magazines and let them hang out for a while. They will loosen up. I just can't say enough about this weapon. It is truly a fine piece of machinery! If you are teetering back and forth on this pistol, I highly recommend it as you will not be disappointed. I will be looking into a full size as well to add to the collection. Buds was awesome as usual. Quick shipping to my FFL once the payment was completed. This is my 3rd gun from Buds and I will continue to purchase from them.

Awesome pistol. Use it as my ccw. Doesn't show and print when carrying it. Fires very clean.

Very good quality weapon. however first time i took it to the range i had the slide lock back with ammo still in the magazine. the thumb grove is extremely close to the slide lock. when i would fire my thumb would bump the slide lock locking it in the open position. sights were slightly off to the left. had to aim at 3 oclock to his bulls eye. the sights are hydraulicly pressed in and to have them adjusted it must be sent back to springfield. other than that i was extremely happy with the it. and as always ordering from buds was easy. however shipping was extremely slow but they also said it would be.

Awesome subcompact gun. I put 100 rounds out of the box through it with no problems what so ever. As for Bud’s gun shop, my second purchase and won’t be the last

This XD 40 sub is the only way to go, I have the xdm 40 4.5 also and will put either of them against anything manufactured out there today. I deal with nobody but Buds on line, and they are the BEST.

Buds was great and the shipping was fast. Great gun but I did have an issue with the slide lock sticking open with the extended magazine. I called up Springfield Armory and they took care of me. Customer service was great and they had the gun back to me in about 3 weeks. Im giving this gun 5 starts because the gun and manufacturer support are top notch.

Finally got a chance to go out and shoot this "bad little boy" and I am very pleased. Put 450 rounds through it with no problems, jams, or malfunctions. I was expecting more of a snap to it when firing, but I found that it was easy to fire re-acquire the target very quickly. It shot right on and has a good trigger pull. This is my concealed weapon, so its small size and power are perfect. I got to thank Buds again for their excellent service and customer satisfaction. Thanks Buds!!! Bill

Bud's sent this gun lightening quick. They really have great customer service. The gun shot flawless right out of the box. I put 200 rounds through it and did not have any FTE or FTF. I am very pleased with it.
