Springfield Armory XD-S 3.3 Single Stack .45 ACP Stainless/Silver Pistol

A: Yes, it is

A: 100% for sure it is a stainless slide. Springfield makes a nice gun. And I did a lot of research on this gun, trust me, its stainless.

A: To my knowledge, there should be no differences now, but I recommend contacting Springfield to verify. Prior to 2016, Springfield use to include a magazine pouch and holster with all their firearms. They had an Essentials line, designated by the 'e' in the model number, to indicate the pistols that would not have the holster or magazine pouch. These pistols were often lower in price as a result. Beginning in 2016, Springfield no longer ships any of there pistols (aside from the 1911s) with the holster or magazine pouch, effectively making all models the Essentials models. Again, I recommend confirming this with Springfield, as this information could've changed recently.

A: A holster and mag pouch is the extras you'll get for the increased price. Not worth it in my opinion. Depends on the type of shooter you are.

A: Corey, Add ins here are holster and 2 magazine mag holder. Worth it? Maybe.

A: Hi Corey, You get a $20 holster and a 2 magazine holder worth $19. Sometimes packages aren't the better deal.

A: Corey, a holster and (2) magazine holder are the only difference. The biggest reason for the price variance is stock level. Buds prices are tied directly to stock level.

A: Basically all gun manufacturers offer different packages when they sell handguns. Extra magazines, magazine holstets, firearm holsters, range bags,ect. That's the difference in prices for the same hand gun.
