Springfield Armory XD
The Springfield Armory XD pistol series began as a Croatian polymer framed pistol designed in 1999 called the PHP. After that the design bureau led by Marko Vuković began improving upon their initial design, starting with the HS95 (in 1995) and the HS2000 (in 2000). The HS2000 was previously imported into the US as the Croatian HS2000 by Intrac/HSAmerica in 2000. Later, in 2002, Springfield Armory began importing the pistol under license and renamed the pistol the XD (for X-treme Duty). The original Croatian design was adopted as the standard service sidearm of the Croatian Military.

Springfield Armory XD-M
The Springfield Armory XD-M (stylized as XDM; "M" stands for the match grade barrel and trigger) is an improved version of the Springfield Armory XD. The most noticeable differences between the previous XD models besides the cosmetic and ergonomic changes are the XD-M's interchangeable back-straps and match-grade barrel. Unlike the previous generation of XD handguns, the XD-M does not require pulling the trigger to disassemble the gun, making field stripping safer and faster.
The first XD-M was produced in .40 S&W, soon followed by the 9x19mm and .45 ACP versions. The XD-M was also produced in subcompact versions, in .40 S&W and 9x19mm. A competition series XD-M was produced in 9x19mm, .40 S&W, and .45 ACP with a 5.25" barrel, remotely resembling the 5" tactical XD pistols. There's also a 22-round competition magazine mainly used by USPSA shooters. Only 5.25" variants have red/green fiber optic front sights. StormLake (based in Tennessee) produces a .357 SIG barrel for the XD-M-40. The XD-M series of pistols won Handgun of the Year in 2009.
In 2020, Springfield Armory introduced the XD-M Elite series with a slew of improvements. These included ambidextrous slide stop, wider and deeper slide serrations, a flat trigger for increased accuracy, a longer and more aggressive grip safety and an extended magazine with a removable larger magazine well. Some other improvements only available on certain models included a removable red dot optic plate, flat dark earth tan frame, suppressor height sights and a threaded barrel.

Springfield Armory XD Mod.2
The Springfield Armory XD Mod.2 features redesigned slide serrations and grip texture, but it retains the original frame size of the original XD and, as such, retains the original XD series magazines. The Mod.2 series is available in Subcompact, Service and Tactical lengths. Mod.2 also has factory options such as a threaded barrel or a FDE tan frame. As the Mod.2 is based on the original XD frame size, some of the changes made to the design included a red fiber optic front sight, a low-profile steel wedge rear sight, a rounded and undercut trigger guard, a MIL-STD-1913 Picatinny Rail, wider and rounded slide serrations, re-contoured slide and frame to improve holstering and concealment and, most notably, a completely redesigned grip texture with various "Grip Zones" for accurate shooting. The Mod.2 utilizes longer thumb rests than on the other XDs. The XD Mod.2 is also the only XD with slight finger grooves, one of three "zones" for better ergonomic comfort. The other two zones are in the middle and rear of the backstrap, which features both smooth and aggressive grip texturing to work with the shape of the human hand.

Springfield Armory XD-S
The Springfield Armory XD-S (stylized as XDS) is a single stack variant of the XD intended for concealed carry or for those who prefer a smaller grip diameter. Originally it was released with a 3.3" barrel, but in 2014 a version with a 4" barrel was introduced. Extended magazines are available that increase the capacity by two rounds (for both the 9x19mm and .45 ACP models), which are normally used with a grip sleeve called an "X-Tension". In addition to the different size and magazine dimensions, the XD-S features further improvements on the design, such as more aggressive developments on the XD-M grip texture, elimination of the striker retaining pin and allowing the user to rack the slide without depressing the grip safety.
