New to Springfield XD. 4 days ago I purchased a new Springfield XD9 9mm with dark green lower. Now I am in the waiting period. I went to my LGS in California and this was the only XD they had. I already have a Sig P226 that I bought a long time ago. Both of my guns are for home defense and range shooting. The only thing I want to change right out of the box would be to add some night sights.

Question. I own the XDM-Elite 4.5 OSP. The OSP plates to install red dot never cam with the gun. Does anyone know if thse 3 plates come with it? I have read that it does but wanted to reach out.
Thanks

You should have received a card with instructions to call Springfield for a single plate but if you mention the ads indicate all three they will send you the three at no charge. I hope this helps and congratulations.

While waiting for my Shield RMSc to be delivered, I bought the screws from Springfield just to be safe. They arrived in a few days. The install was easy with a little drop of blue Loctite on each screw and the optic is on firmly with no looseness after about 800 rounds. Torque to the 15.49 psi Shield recommends and you're good to go. You may have to cut the screws supplied with the Shield optic if you use them.

I used the screws included with the smsc. Remember not to over-tighten and check for pistol function (unloaded) after install. Make sure the slide moves freely and trigger functions as before. As Locknload said you can get a set from Springfield for $5 too.
Screws should be
M4 x .07 x 7.5mm

Thanks OkiePewPew! Glad to hear you got the right screws. I read so many posts on the forum about having to cut the Shield supplied screws that I bought the Springfield screws to avoid that. For $5, it was worth it to me for peace of mind.

Brand new to this forum, but not to Springfield Armory. Own a rifle (SOCOM 16) and a pistol 1911 in .45 acp. Love them both. Thank you for accepting me to your forum.

Just bought xd9 and only came with soft pouch. Shouldn’t it come with a hard case?

SA seems to have switched to cardboard /w soft pouch VS previous hard case. Not sure if it's all of their firearms, but my last few were this way.

Hey I see you’re a mod and you replied to my post about the hatebrake but you just showed a pic of the standard one ... I have one ... I need the one the comes on the saint edge pdw

Ah, gotcha. The standard Hatebrake is all you’re going to find. Springfield’s is mfg special for the PDW and they don’t sell parts. I have heard that there’s enough material there to shave down the faces for a smaller hand guard but no one has pics to prove it’s actually been done. Not that I’ve seen at least. You might check to see if there’s a Maxim defense fan page on Facebook or check with the FB Saint page.
