The compact XD45 is a 45ACP pistol that has a shorter grip. More suitable for everyday carry. But, the barrel length is still 4". More can be seen here: http://springfield-armory.com/xd.php?model=23

Just got my compact on Saturday. Dimensions very similar, almost identical in some regards as my Glock23. Shot it at range on Sunday - awesome. Very natural feel and I like trigger better than Glock I have. Will be my carry gun - great dimensions and 10rnds of 45acp - yowza!

I had the pleasure of shooting one at a local range recently. This dude was there and wanted to shoot the wife's XD9, so I got to fire his XD45 compact. What did I think? I now MUST have one. It was great, less felt recoil than the 9mm (a subcompact). Also, the XD45's trigger was better than the XD9. A must have in my book. -stunks

My friend just got his last night. He got the 5" compact 45. Very nice. Now I want a 5" compact in 9mm. Hopefully they will start making those soon. Does anyone know where to get the full 13 round mags with sleeves for the compact 45? I can't seem to find them at Midway or PistolGear.

Essentially the best of both possible worlds.

There is a 5&quot; Compact. I did not know that. http://www.gunbroker.com/Auction/Vie...?Item=66291435 I ordered 3 mags for my XD45 compact back in January, 2 10 rounders and 1 13 round. They all 3 were delivered last weekend.
