This week, we’re taking a closer look at the Springfield Armory XD-M Elite 4.5-inch OSP. A pistol chambered for the hard-hitting 10mm, this semi-automatic is a handgun-hunter's dream, even coming available with a Hex Dragonfly red-dot straight from the factory. With a 4.5-inch, Melonite-finished barrel boasting a 1:16-inch twist, this XD-M Elite is just as at home making longer precision shots, as it is with more rapid, close-up shooting. Learn more about it in the video embedded above, hosted by Digital Associate Editor David Herman. MSRP: $663 (w/o Hex), $837 (w/ Hex); springfield-armory.com.
