Bench rested and zeroed my pistol today. I installed a CyLee Red Dot. I only had to adjust the elevation a few clicks. Very VERY accurate pistol for being 45acp. I zeroed it starting at 7yds. Then 10yds. Then shot at 15yds. Deadly accurate.

1911 seven and eight round magazines are the same. They will both fit.

I had to send my Compact XDM Elite OSP 45acp pistol back to SA repair the day after I bought it new. One of the optic screws would not budge and got stripped. It took about three weeks to get the pistol back in my hands. They repaired the gun and installed my RMR optics plate like I asked them...

Update: I talked to SE customer service this morning. Going back via FedEx today. They will fix my slide and install the RMR plate for me. VERY EXCELLENT customer service there..!! Thank you to EVERYONE here that has replied to this! The customer service gal was awesome on the phone! She told...

I never seen Loc-Tite do this. It's more like they used an Impact Gun on the screws. Even using a T-Handle did not break it loose. This really sucks. I hope I can hold my temper on the phone tomorrow morning....:mad:

I picked my gun up yesterday. Tried removing optics plate to install a RMR Red Dot. The rear screw would not budge at all. Even used a T-Handle. The screw now is stripped and I have to call SA customer service tomorrow to send it back. This sucks. I haven't even shot this gun once; And I have...

Nevadasun: There are quite a few bad reviews on this. This is a good one to watch. It seems like the 3.8" barrel shoots better than the full sized 4.5" one. Elite 10mm Tests. You can also do a YouTube search. Type in SPRINGFIELD XDM ELITE OSP 10mm accuracy issues. There are others besides the...

I have the XDM Elite OSP 4.5" 10mm. Since day one; Mine shoots very poor groups at all distances using a large variety of name brand ammo. It shoots very high and to the left at any distance with the groups being 4" to 5". POA and POI is a joke with this gun. It pisses me off on how much I spent...

I shot Fiocchi 180gr, MagTech 180gr, Blazer Brass 180gr, Aguila 180gr, Remington UMC 180gr; And about 6 rounds of Buffalo Bore Heavy 180gr hp's. All of these were not in tight groups like I wanted. Thanks to everyone for their replies. My gun has never failed to do anything except shoot tight...

I went to the range yesterday and bench rested my 10mm 4.5" XDM Elite using six different name brands of ammo. All FMJ 180gr. Shooting at 15yds; All of my groups were 3.5" to 4". This is NOT a Match Grade barrel in these guns! I measured the thickness of my barrel. It was 0.09". This is the same...

Greetings from Missouri

The markings on the mag show 15rds. But they are 16rd magazines. I am guessing they did not have enough room to punch out the 16rd hole and engraving.

I took the extra rounds out of my mags just now. Don't want to take any chances...:cool: Thank you everyone that replied here with this advice...(y)

Yes, they all ran fine. Not one misfire, jam, stove pipe, failure to feed or eject.

Went to the range today. Shot all five of my 16rd mags that came with my XDM. Got home, cleaned it, and then loaded up my mags for the next range visit this weekend. The first mag I loaded; I lost count on how many rounds I loaded. I unloaded it and it had 17rds. So I reloaded it and the other...
