Springfield Mod.2 40 S&W Sub-Compact Bi-Tone With GripZone (Compliant)

The Springfield Mod.2 40 S&W Sub-Compact Bi-Tone with GripZone (Compliant) delivers a reliable, everyday-carry platform built around the proven .40 S&W cartridge. This model combines the compact slide of the XD-S line with the higher capacity frame of the Mod.2 series, offering shooters a balanced blend of concealability and firepower. The bi-tone finish pairs a black polymer frame with a stainless steel slide, providing both corrosion resistance and a clean aesthetic.

Overview

The Springfield Mod.2 40 S&W Sub-Compact Bi-Tone with GripZone (Compliant) is engineered for defensive use and concealed carry. Based on the XD platform, this pistol features a 3-inch barrel and a sub-compact grip designed for easy concealment under light clothing. The “Compliant” designation indicates this model ships with a California-compliant 10-round magazine, making it available for purchase in states with capacity restrictions. The trigger system incorporates Springfield’s Enhanced Grip Safety and a loaded chamber indicator for added safety during handling.

Features & Specs

This pistol integrates the patented GripZone texture, which uses variable-depth surfaces to improve control during recoil and follow-up shots. The bi-tone slide is machined from forged stainless steel with a Melonite finish for durability. The frame uses a high-strength polymer and includes a Picatinny accessory rail for mounting lights or lasers.

The Springfield Mod.2 40 S&W Sub-Compact Bi-Tone with GripZone (Compliant) ships with a lockable hard case, cable lock, two magazines, and a cleaning brush. The grip frame accepts standard XD base pads and aftermarket holsters designed for the 3-inch sub-compact slide.

Who It’s For

This firearm is intended for the responsible civilian owner who needs a concealed carry pistol with a proven defensive caliber. The .40 S&W round offers a balance of magazine capacity and terminal performance that appeals to shooters who prioritize stopping power over the lower recoil of 9mm. The sub-compact size makes it suitable for appendix, strong-side, or pocket carry with appropriate holster selection.

The GripZone texture benefits shooters with larger hands who find standard sub-compact grips too smooth, and the compliance magazine option allows purchase in restrictive states without aftermarket modification. This model is also a practical choice for backup duty use under agency guidelines that mandate 10-round magazines.
