The Springfield Armory #3 Backstrap (Springfield Armory part no. XDM0003C) is a textured black polymer backstrap sized for the XD-M Compact .45 ACP with a 3.8-inch barrel. Springfield Armory designs it to work with that model’s magazine backstrap sleeve system, letting you fine-tune grip size and texture without sending the pistol out for gunsmithing. The #3 size is one option in Springfield’s sizing lineup, so matching the correct number to your specific XD-M Compact configuration matters before ordering.
